Small cell lung cancer (SCLC) is an aggressive form of lung cancer witha poor prognosis and limited therapeutic options, representing about 15%of all newly diagnosed lung cancers and equal to about 25,000 new casesin the US and 180,000 new cases worldwide per year. Survival rates haveremained low for several decades, with only 5% of SCLC patientssurviving five years, in a large part due to the lack of new therapiesto combat this form of lung cancer. Most patients present withextensive-stage disease, while about a third of patients present withlimited stage disease, defined by the presence of tumors in only oneside of the chest and that fit in a single radiation field. These stagesimpact available therapeutic regiments, with limited stage diseasetreated with chemotherapy and radiation and extensive stage diseasetreated with chemotherapy alone. Disseminated, metastatic tumors withlymphoma-like characteristics are a hallmark of SCLC. The first knowndiagnosis of SCLC patients described it as a disease of the lymphaticsystem, not being recognized as lung cancer until 1926, which highlightssome of the unique nature of SCLC tumors as compared to other solidtumors.

Patients typically respond well to the current front-line therapy, whichincludes etoposide and cisplatin, but invariably quickly relapse withchemoresistant disease, for which no therapeutic options are currentlyavailable. Prognosis in the relapsed refractory setting is extremelypoor, with rapid disease progression and short median survival of lessthan six months. Furthermore, SCLC patients have high rates ofcomorbidities, including hypertension, cardiac disease, diabetes andparaneoplastic syndromes. These, coupled with the typically advanced ageof SCLC patients, impact the ability of patients to endure harsh chemoregimens, further limiting treatment options.

A bispecific antibody modality, comprising an scFv that recognizes CD3expressed on T cells and another scFv that recognizes a tumor-associatedantigen, has shown promising efficacy in the clinic, with high responserates in hematological malignancies such as refractory B-ALL (Topp, M.S. et al. Blood, 2012. 120(26): p. 5185-5187), resulting in the approvalof Blincyto. While efficacy with T cell-engaging therapies has yet to bedemonstrated in a solid tumor indication, SCLC may represent a promisingsolid tumor indication for the CD3× tumor target bispecific antibodymodality, given the disseminated nature of the disease. Therefore, abispecific T cell engager that directs T cells against a specific tumorantigen presents a new opportunity as a new therapeutic option in thetreatment of SCLC.

DLL3 was presently identified as an SCLC-specific tumor antigen bynext-generation sequencing, comparing the prevalence of DLL3 mRNA in apanel of primary patient tumors and a large collection of normaltissues. The level of DLL3 expression in SCLC tumors was moderate, buthighly prevalent, with approximately 90% of the tumors analyzed showingevidence of DLL3 expression by RNA-seq. In contrast to SCLC tumors,normal tissues showed very low expression of DLL3 transcript, with smalllevels detected in testis, optic nerve and cerebellum. Comparison ofSCLC cell lines and tumors by RNA-seq showed similar expression levels,while cell surface quantitation of DLL3 expression on SCLC cell linesindicated expression levels below 5000 DLL3 per cell, with typicalexpression levels below 2000 DLL3/cell. Expression of DLL3 protein wasconfirmed by IHC, where 86% of SCLC tumors showed positive staining forDLL3, with a homogeneous and membranous staining pattern. Aside fromvery faint staining in cerebellum, all other normal tissues werenegative for DLL3 staining.

DLL3 is a non-canonical Notch ligand, functioning in a cell autonomousmanner to inhibit Notch signaling, binding to Notch in cis, thusblocking cell to cell interactions and internalization of Notch in thetarget cell, a hallmark of canonical Notch signaling. The primary rolefor DLL3 is in somitogenesis during embryonic development. Mice withDLL3 knockouts show segmental defects in the axial skeleton and cranialand neuronal development. Somitic patterning defects are also seen inhumans with certain germline DLL3 mutations, resulting in a conditioncalled spondylocostal dysostosis.

DLL3 has been proposed previously in methods to diagnose and treatglioma, in addition to SCLC, using an antibody-drug conjugate (ADC) (WO2013/126746). Using an ADC-based approach for DLL3 may have limitations,given the low expression levels of the protein on the cell surface andthe reduced performance of ADCs against targets with low expression.Furthermore, ADC molecules often demonstrate toxicity related to freewarhead, likely a result of linker degradation, resulting in maximumtolerated dose limitations and potential impacts on efficacy unrelatedto the target chosen for the antibody. This is less likely to be anissue for a T cell-engaging bispecific molecule, engineered to engageDLL3 and CD3 simultaneously, given the required sensitivity of T cellsfor their targets, and highly potent in vitro cytotoxicity has beendemonstrated on cell lines expressing several hundred target proteinsper cell. Additionally, the usually smaller size of a bispecific T cellengaging antibody construct relative to a normal antibody (full-lengthIgG) may improve tissue penetration and increase potency due to moreefficient engagement of the DLL3 and CD3 targets, resulting in improvedsynapse formation between the T cell and target tumor cell.

SCLC remains a significant unmet medical need, and new therapeuticoptions are required to improve the outlook for this sizable patientpopulation. The above discussed bispecific antibody modality isclinically validated, and as such an antibody construct targeting DLL3and CD3 represents a promising new possibility for the treatment of SCLCand an opportunity to improve the survival of patients suffering withthis indication. As there is still a need for having available furtheroptions for the treatment of tumor or cancer diseases related to theoverexpression of DLL3, there are provided herewith means and methodsfor the solution of this problem in the form of a bispecific antibodyconstruct with one binding domain directed to DLL3 and a second bindingdomain directed to CD3 on T cells.

Thus, in a first aspect, the present invention provides a bispecificantibody construct comprising a first binding domain which binds tohuman DLL3 on the surface of a target cell and a second binding domainwhich binds to human CD3 on the surface of a T cell, wherein the firstbinding domain binds to an epitope of DLL3 which is comprised within theregion as depicted in SEQ ID NO: 260.

The term “antibody construct” refers to a molecule in which thestructure and/or function is/are based on the structure and/or functionof an antibody, e.g., of a full-length or whole immunoglobulin molecule.An antibody construct is hence capable of binding to its specific targetor antigen. Furthermore, an antibody construct according to theinvention comprises the minimum structural requirements of an antibodywhich allow for the target binding. This minimum requirement may e.g. bedefined by the presence of at least the three light chain CDRs (i.e.CDR1, CDR2 and CDR3 of the VL region) and/or the three heavy chain CDRs(i.e. CDR1, CDR2 and CDR3 of the VH region), preferably of all six CDRs.The antibodies on which the constructs according to the invention arebased include for example monoclonal, recombinant, chimeric,deimmunized, humanized and human antibodies.

Within the definition of “antibody constructs” according to theinvention are full-length or whole antibodies also including camelidantibodies and other immunoglobulin antibodies generated bybiotechnological or protein engineering methods or processes. Thesefull-length antibodies may be for example monoclonal, recombinant,chimeric, deimmunized, humanized and human antibodies. Also within thedefinition of “antibody constructs” are fragments of full-lengthantibodies, such as VH, VHH, VL, (s)dAb, Fv, Fd, Fab, Fab′, F(ab′)2 or“r IgG” (“half antibody”). Antibody constructs according to theinvention may also be modified fragments of antibodies, also calledantibody variants, such as scFv, di-scFv or bi(s)-scFv, scFv-Fc,scFv-zipper, scFab, Fab2, Fab3, diabodies, single chain diabodies,tandem diabodies (Tandab's), tandem di-scFv, tandem tri-scFv,“minibodies” exemplified by a structure which is as follows:(VH-VL-CH3)2, (scFv-CH3)2, ((scFv)2-CH3+CH3), ((scFv)2-CH3) or(scFv-CH3-scFv)2, multibodies such as triabodies or tetrabodies, andsingle domain antibodies such as nanobodies or single variable domainantibodies comprising merely one variable domain, which might be VHH, VHor VL, that specifically bind an antigen or epitope independently ofother V regions or domains. Further preferred formats of the antibodyconstructs according to the invention are cross bodies, maxi bodies,hetero Fc constructs and mono Fc constructs. Examples for those formatswill be described herein below.

A binding domain may typically comprise an antibody light chain variableregion (VL) and an antibody heavy chain variable region (VH); however,it does not have to comprise both. Fd fragments, for example, have twoVH regions and often retain some antigen-binding function of the intactantigen-binding domain. Additional examples for the format of antibodyfragments, antibody variants or binding domains include (1) a Fabfragment, a monovalent fragment having the VL, VH, CL and CH1 domains;(2) a F(ab′)2 fragment, a bivalent fragment having two Fab fragmentslinked by a disulfide bridge at the hinge region; (3) an Fd fragmenthaving the two VH and CH1 domains; (4) an Fv fragment having the VL andVH domains of a single arm of an antibody, (5) a dAb fragment (Ward etal., (1989) Nature 341:544-546), which has a VH domain; (6) an isolatedcomplementarity determining region (CDR), and (7) a single chain Fv(scFv), the latter being preferred (for example, derived from anscFv-library). Examples for embodiments of antibody constructs accordingto the invention are e.g. described in WO 00/006605, WO 2005/040220, WO2008/119567, WO 2010/037838, WO 2013/026837, WO 2013/026833, US2014/0308285, US 2014/0302037, WO 2014/144722, WO 2014/151910, and WO2015/048272.

Furthermore, the definition of the term “antibody construct” includesmonovalent, bivalent and polyvalent/multivalent constructs and, thus,monospecific constructs, specifically binding to only one antigenicstructure, as well as bispecific and polyspecific/multispecificconstructs, which specifically bind more than one antigenic structure,e.g. two, three or more, through distinct binding domains. Moreover, thedefinition of the term “antibody construct” includes moleculesconsisting of only one polypeptide chain as well as molecules consistingof more than one polypeptide chain, which chains can be either identical(homodimers, homotrimers or homo oligomers) or different (heterodimer,heterotrimer or heterooligomer). Examples for the above identifiedantibodies and variants or derivatives thereof are described inter aliain Harlow and Lane, Antibodies a laboratory manual, CSHL Press (1988)and Using Antibodies: a laboratory manual, CSHL Press (1999), Kontermannand Dübel, Antibody Engineering, Springer, 2nd ed. 2010 and Little,Recombinant Antibodies for Immunotherapy, Cambridge University Press2009.

The antibody constructs of the present invention are preferably “invitro generated antibody constructs”. This term refers to an antibodyconstruct according to the above definition where all or part of thevariable region (e.g., at least one CDR) is generated in a non-immunecell selection, e.g., an in vitro phage display, protein chip or anyother method in which candidate sequences can be tested for theirability to bind to an antigen. This term thus preferably excludessequences generated solely by genomic rearrangement in an immune cell inan animal. A “recombinant antibody” is an antibody made through the useof recombinant DNA technology or genetic engineering.

The term “monoclonal antibody” (mAb) or monoclonal antibody construct asused herein refers to an antibody obtained from a population ofsubstantially homogeneous antibodies, i.e., the individual antibodiescomprising the population are identical except for possible naturallyoccurring mutations and/or post-translation modifications (e.g.,isomerizations, amidations) that may be present in minor amounts.Monoclonal antibodies are highly specific, being directed against asingle antigenic site or determinant on the antigen, in contrast toconventional (polyclonal) antibody preparations which typically includedifferent antibodies directed against different determinants (orepitopes). In addition to their specificity, the monoclonal antibodiesare advantageous in that they are synthesized by the hybridoma culture,hence uncontaminated by other immunoglobulins. The modifier “monoclonal”indicates the character of the antibody as being obtained from asubstantially homogeneous population of antibodies, and is not to beconstrued as requiring production of the antibody by any particularmethod.

For the preparation of monoclonal antibodies, any technique providingantibodies produced by continuous cell line cultures can be used. Forexample, monoclonal antibodies to be used may be made by the hybridomamethod first described by Koehler et al., Nature, 256: 495 (1975), ormay be made by recombinant DNA methods (see, e.g., U.S. Pat. No.4,816,567). Examples for further techniques to produce human monoclonalantibodies include the trioma technique, the human B-cell hybridomatechnique (Kozbor, Immunology Today 4 (1983), 72) and the EBV-hybridomatechnique (Cole et al., Monoclonal Antibodies and Cancer Therapy, AlanR. Liss, Inc. (1985), 77-96).

Hybridomas can then be screened using standard methods, such asenzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) and surface plasmon resonance(BIACORE™) analysis, to identify one or more hybridomas that produce anantibody that specifically binds with a specified antigen. Any form ofthe relevant antigen may be used as the immunogen, e.g., recombinantantigen, naturally occurring forms, any variants or fragments thereof,as well as an antigenic peptide thereof. Surface plasmon resonance asemployed in the BIAcore system can be used to increase the efficiency ofphage antibodies which bind to an epitope of a target antigen, such asDLL3 or CD3 epsilon (Schier, Human Antibodies Hybridomas 7 (1996),97-105; Malmborg, J. Immunol. Methods 183 (1995), 7-13).

Another exemplary method of making monoclonal antibodies includesscreening protein expression libraries, e.g., phage display or ribosomedisplay libraries. Phage display is described, for example, in Ladner etal., U.S. Pat. No. 5,223,409; Smith (1985) Science 228:1315-1317,Clackson et al., Nature, 352: 624-628 (1991) and Marks et al., J. Mol.Biol., 222: 581-597 (1991).

In addition to the use of display libraries, the relevant antigen can beused to immunize a non-human animal, e.g., a rodent (such as a mouse,hamster, rabbit or rat). In one embodiment, the non-human animalincludes at least a part of a human immunoglobulin gene. For example, itis possible to engineer mouse strains deficient in mouse antibodyproduction with large fragments of the human Ig (immunoglobulin) loci.Using the hybridoma technology, antigen-specific monoclonal antibodiesderived from the genes with the desired specificity may be produced andselected. See, e.g., XENOMOUSE™, Green et al. (1994) Nature Genetics7:13-21, US 2003-0070185, WO 96/34096, and WO 96/33735.

A monoclonal antibody can also be obtained from a non-human animal, andthen modified, e.g., humanized, deimmunized, rendered chimeric etc.,using recombinant DNA techniques known in the art. Examples of modifiedantibody constructs include humanized variants of non-human antibodies,“affinity matured” antibodies (see, e.g. Hawkins et al. J. Mol. Biol.254, 889-896 (1992) and Lowman et al., Biochemistry 30, 10832-10837(1991)) and antibody mutants with altered effector function(s) (see,e.g., U.S. Pat. No. 5,648,260, Kontermann and Dübel (2010), loc. cit.and Little (2009), loc. cit.).

In immunology, affinity maturation is the process by which B cellsproduce antibodies with increased affinity for antigen during the courseof an immune response. With repeated exposures to the same antigen, ahost will produce antibodies of successively greater affinities. Likethe natural prototype, the in vitro affinity maturation is based on theprinciples of mutation and selection. The in vitro affinity maturationhas successfully been used to optimize antibodies, antibody constructs,and antibody fragments. Random mutations inside the CDRs are introducedusing radiation, chemical mutagens or error-prone PCR. In addition, thegenetical diversity can be increased by chain shuffling. Two or threerounds of mutation and selection using display methods like phagedisplay usually results in antibody fragments with affinities in the lownanomolar range.

A preferred type of an amino acid substitutional varianation of theantibody constructs involves substituting one or more hypervariableregion residues of a parent antibody (e. g. a humanized or humanantibody). Generally, the resulting variant(s) selected for furtherdevelopment will have improved biological properties relative to theparent antibody from which they are generated. A convenient way forgenerating such substitutional variants involves affinity maturationusing phage display. Briefly, several hypervariable region sites (e. g.6-7 sites) are mutated to generate all possible amino acid substitutionsat each site. The antibody variants thus generated are displayed in amonovalent fashion from filamentous phage particles as fusions to thegene III product of M13 packaged within each particle. Thephage-displayed variants are then screened for their biological activity(e. g. binding affinity) as herein disclosed. In order to identifycandidate hypervariable region sites for modification, alanine scanningmutagenesis can be performed to identify hypervariable region residuescontributing significantly to antigen binding. Alternatively, oradditionally, it may be beneficial to analyze a crystal structure of theantigen-antibody complex to identify contact points between the bindingdomain and, e.g., human DLL3. Such contact residues and neighbouringresidues are candidates for substitution according to the techniqueselaborated herein. Once such variants are generated, the panel ofvariants is subjected to screening as described herein and antibodieswith superior properties in one or more relevant assays may be selectedfor further development.

The monoclonal antibodies and antibody constructs of the presentinvention specifically include “chimeric” antibodies (immunoglobulins)in which a portion of the heavy and/or light chain is identical with orhomologous to corresponding sequences in antibodies derived from aparticular species or belonging to a particular antibody class orsubclass, while the remainder of the chain(s) is/are identical with orhomologous to corresponding sequences in antibodies derived from anotherspecies or belonging to another antibody class or subclass, as well asfragments of such antibodies, so long as they exhibit the desiredbiological activity (U.S. Pat. No. 4,816,567; Morrison et al., Proc.Natl. Acad. Sci. USA, 81: 6851-6855 (1984)). Chimeric antibodies ofinterest herein include “primitized” antibodies comprising variabledomain antigen-binding sequences derived from a non-human primate (e.g.,Old World Monkey, Ape etc.) and human constant region sequences. Avariety of approaches for making chimeric antibodies have beendescribed. See e.g., Morrison et al., Proc. Natl. Acad. ScL U.S.A.81:6851, 1985; Takeda et al., Nature 314:452, 1985, Cabilly et al., U.S.Pat. No. 4,816,567; Boss et al., U.S. Pat. No. 4,816,397; Tanaguchi etal., EP 0171496; EP 0173494; and GB 2177096.

An antibody, antibody construct, antibody fragment or antibody variantmay also be modified by specific deletion of human T cell epitopes (amethod called “deimmunization”) by the methods disclosed for example inWO 98/52976 or WO 00/34317. Briefly, the heavy and light chain variabledomains of an antibody can be analyzed for peptides that bind to MHCclass II; these peptides represent potential T cell epitopes (as definedin WO 98/52976 and WO 00/34317). For detection of potential T cellepitopes, a computer modeling approach termed “peptide threading” can beapplied, and in addition a database of human MHC class II bindingpeptides can be searched for motifs present in the VH and VL sequences,as described in WO 98/52976 and WO 00/34317. These motifs bind to any ofthe 18 major MHC class II DR allotypes, and thus constitute potential Tcell epitopes. Potential T cell epitopes detected can be eliminated bysubstituting small numbers of amino acid residues in the variabledomains, or preferably, by single amino acid substitutions. Typically,conservative substitutions are made. Often, but not exclusively, anamino acid common to a position in human germline antibody sequences maybe used. Human germline sequences are disclosed e.g. in Tomlinson, etal. (1992) J. Mol. Biol. 227:776-798; Cook, G. P. et al. (1995) Immunol.Today Vol. 16 (5): 237-242; and Tomlinson et al. (1995) EMBO J. 14:14:4628-4638. The V BASE directory provides a comprehensive directory ofhuman immunoglobulin variable region sequences (compiled by Tomlinson, LA. et al. MRC Centre for Protein Engineering, Cambridge, UK). Thesesequences can be used as a source of human sequence, e.g., for frameworkregions and CDRs. Consensus human framework regions can also be used,for example as described in U.S. Pat. No. 6,300,064.

“Humanized” antibodies, antibody constructs, variants or fragmentsthereof (such as Fv, Fab, Fab′, F(ab′)2 or other antigen-bindingsubsequences of antibodies) are antibodies or immunoglobulins of mostlyhuman sequences, which contain (a) minimal sequence(s) derived fromnon-human immunoglobulin. For the most part, humanized antibodies arehuman immunoglobulins (recipient antibody) in which residues from ahypervariable region (also CDR) of the recipient are replaced byresidues from a hypervariable region of a non-human (e.g., rodent)species (donor antibody) such as mouse, rat, hamster or rabbit havingthe desired specificity, affinity, and capacity. In some instances, Fvframework region (FR) residues of the human immunoglobulin are replacedby corresponding non-human residues. Furthermore, “humanized antibodies”as used herein may also comprise residues which are found neither in therecipient antibody nor the donor antibody. These modifications are madeto further refine and optimize antibody performance. The humanizedantibody may also comprise at least a portion of an immunoglobulinconstant region (Fc), typically that of a human immunoglobulin. Forfurther details, see Jones et al., Nature, 321: 522-525 (1986);Reichmann et al., Nature, 332: 323-329 (1988); and Presta, Curr. Op.Struct. Biol., 2: 593-596 (1992).

Humanized antibodies or fragments thereof can be generated by replacingsequences of the Fv variable domain that are not directly involved inantigen binding with equivalent sequences from human Fv variabledomains. Exemplary methods for generating humanized antibodies orfragments thereof are provided by Morrison (1985) Science 229:1202-1207;by Oi et al. (1986) BioTechniques 4:214; and by U.S. Pat. Nos.5,585,089; 5,693,761; 5,693,762; 5,859,205; and 6,407,213. Those methodsinclude isolating, manipulating, and expressing the nucleic acidsequences that encode all or part of immunoglobulin Fv variable domainsfrom at least one of a heavy or light chain. Such nucleic acids may beobtained from a hybridoma producing an antibody against a predeterminedtarget, as described above, as well as from other sources. Therecombinant DNA encoding the humanized antibody molecule can then becloned into an appropriate expression vector.

Humanized antibodies may also be produced using transgenic animals suchas mice that express human heavy and light chain genes, but areincapable of expressing the endogenous mouse immunoglobulin heavy andlight chain genes. Winter describes an exemplary CDR grafting methodthat may be used to prepare the humanized antibodies described herein(U.S. Pat. No. 5,225,539). All of the CDRs of a particular humanantibody may be replaced with at least a portion of a non-human CDR, oronly some of the CDRs may be replaced with non-human CDRs. It is onlynecessary to replace the number of CDRs required for binding of thehumanized antibody to a predetermined antigen.

A humanized antibody can be optimized by the introduction ofconservative substitutions, consensus sequence substitutions, germlinesubstitutions and/or back mutations. Such altered immunoglobulinmolecules can be made by any of several techniques known in the art,(e.g., Teng et al., Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U.S.A., 80: 7308-7312, 1983;Kozbor et al., Immunology Today, 4: 7279, 1983; Olsson et al., Meth.Enzymol., 92: 3-16, 1982, and EP 239 400).

The term “human antibody”, “human antibody construct” and “human bindingdomain” includes antibodies, antibody constructs and binding domainshaving antibody regions such as variable and constant regions or domainswhich correspond substantially to human germline immunoglobulinsequences known in the art, including, for example, those described byKabat et al. (1991) (loc. cit.). The human antibodies, antibodyconstructs or binding domains of the invention may include amino acidresidues not encoded by human germline immunoglobulin sequences (e.g.,mutations introduced by random or site-specific mutagenesis in vitro orby somatic mutation in vivo), for example in the CDRs, and inparticular, in CDR3. The human antibodies, antibody constructs orbinding domains can have at least one, two, three, four, five, or morepositions replaced with an amino acid residue that is not encoded by thehuman germline immunoglobulin sequence. The definition of humanantibodies, antibody constructs and binding domains as used herein alsocontemplates fully human antibodies, which include only non-artificiallyand/or genetically altered human sequences of antibodies as those can bederived by using technologies or systems such as the Xenomouse.

In some embodiments, the antibody constructs of the invention are“isolated” or “substantially pure” antibody constructs. “Isolated” or“substantially pure”, when used to describe the antibody constructsdisclosed herein, means an antibody construct that has been identified,separated and/or recovered from a component of its productionenvironment. Preferably, the antibody construct is free or substantiallyfree of association with all other components from its productionenvironment. Contaminant components of its production environment, suchas that resulting from recombinant transfected cells, are materials thatwould typically interfere with diagnostic or therapeutic uses for thepolypeptide, and may include enzymes, hormones, and other proteinaceousor non-proteinaceous solutes. The antibody constructs may e.g constituteat least about 5%, or at least about 50% by weight of the total proteinin a given sample. It is understood that the isolated protein mayconstitute from 5% to 99.9% by weight of the total protein content,depending on the circumstances. The polypeptide may be made at asignificantly higher concentration through the use of an induciblepromoter or high expression promoter, such that it is made at increasedconcentration levels. The definition includes the production of anantibody construct in a wide variety of organisms and/or host cells thatare known in the art. In preferred embodiments, the antibody constructwill be purified (1) to a degree sufficient to obtain at least 15residues of N-terminal or internal amino acid sequence by use of aspinning cup sequenator, or (2) to homogeneity by SDS-PAGE undernon-reducing or reducing conditions using Coomassie blue or, preferably,silver stain. Ordinarily, however, an isolated antibody construct willbe prepared by at least one purification step.

The term “binding domain” characterizes in connection with the presentinvention a domain which (specifically) binds to/interactswith/recognizes a given target epitope or a given target site on thetarget molecules (antigens), here: DLL3 and CD3, respectively. Thestructure and function of the first binding domain (recognizing DLL3),and preferably also the structure and/or function of the second bindingdomain (recognizing CD3), is/are based on the structure and/or functionof an antibody, e.g. of a full-length or whole immunoglobulin molecule.According to the invention, the first binding domain is characterized bythe presence of three light chain CDRs (i.e. CDR1, CDR2 and CDR3 of theVL region) and/or three heavy chain CDRs (i.e. CDR1, CDR2 and CDR3 ofthe VH region). The second binding domain preferably also comprises theminimum structural requirements of an antibody which allow for thetarget binding. More preferably, the second binding domain comprises atleast three light chain CDRs (i.e. CDR1, CDR2 and CDR3 of the VL region)and/or three heavy chain CDRs (i.e. CDR1, CDR2 and CDR3 of the VHregion). It is envisaged that the first and/or second binding domain isproduced by or obtainable by phage-display or library screening methodsrather than by grafting CDR sequences from a pre-existing (monoclonal)antibody into a scaffold.

According to the present invention, binding domains are in the form ofone or more polypeptides. Such polypeptides may include proteinaceousparts and non-proteinaceous parts (e.g. chemical linkers or chemicalcross-linking agents such as glutaraldehyde). Proteins (includingfragments thereof, preferably biologically active fragments, andpeptides, usually having less than 30 amino acids) comprise two or moreamino acids coupled to each other via a covalent peptide bond (resultingin a chain of amino acids). The term “polypeptide” as used hereindescribes a group of molecules, which usually consist of more than 30amino acids. Polypeptides may further form multimers such as dimers,trimers and higher oligomers, i.e., consisting of more than onepolypeptide molecule. Polypeptide molecules forming such dimers, trimersetc. may be identical or non-identical. The corresponding higher orderstructures of such multimers are, consequently, termed homo- orheterodimers, homo- or heterotrimers etc. An example for ahereteromultimer is an antibody molecule, which, in its naturallyoccurring form, consists of two identical light polypeptide chains andtwo identical heavy polypeptide chains. The terms “peptide”,“polypeptide” and “protein” also refer to naturally modifiedpeptides/polypeptides/proteins wherein the modification is effected e.g.by post-translational modifications like glycosylation, acetylation,phosphorylation and the like. A “peptide”, “polypeptide” or “protein”when referred to herein may also be chemically modified such aspegylated. Such modifications are well known in the art and describedherein below.

Preferably the binding domain which binds to DLL3 and/or the bindingdomain which binds to CD3 is/are human binding domains. Antibodies andantibody constructs comprising at least one human binding domain avoidsome of the problems associated with antibodies or antibody constructsthat possess non-human such as rodent (e.g. murine, rat, hamster orrabbit) variable and/or constant regions. The presence of such rodentderived proteins can lead to the rapid clearance of the antibodies orantibody constructs or can lead to the generation of an immune responseagainst the antibody or antibody construct by a patient. In order toavoid the use of rodent derived antibodies or antibody constructs, humanor fully human antibodies/antibody constructs can be generated throughthe introduction of human antibody function into a rodent so that therodent produces fully human antibodies.

The ability to clone and reconstruct megabase-sized human loci in YACsand to introduce them into the mouse germline provides a powerfulapproach to elucidating the functional components of very large orcrudely mapped loci as well as generating useful models of humandisease. Furthermore, the use of such technology for substitution ofmouse loci with their human equivalents could provide unique insightsinto the expression and regulation of human gene products duringdevelopment, their communication with other systems, and theirinvolvement in disease induction and progression.

An important practical application of such a strategy is the“humanization” of the mouse humoral immune system. Introduction of humanimmunoglobulin (Ig) loci into mice in which the endogenous Ig genes havebeen inactivated offers the opportunity to study the mechanismsunderlying programmed expression and assembly of antibodies as well astheir role in B-cell development. Furthermore, such a strategy couldprovide an ideal source for production of fully human monoclonalantibodies (mAbs)—an important milestone towards fulfilling the promiseof antibody therapy in human disease. Fully human antibodies or antibodyconstructs are expected to minimize the immunogenic and allergicresponses intrinsic to mouse or mouse-derivatized mAbs and thus toincrease the efficacy and safety of the administered antibodies/antibodyconstructs. The use of fully human antibodies or antibody constructs canbe expected to provide a substantial advantage in the treatment ofchronic and recurring human diseases, such as inflammation,autoimmunity, and cancer, which require repeated compoundadministrations.

One approach towards this goal was to engineer mouse strains deficientin mouse antibody production with large fragments of the human Ig lociin anticipation that such mice would produce a large repertoire of humanantibodies in the absence of mouse antibodies. Large human Ig fragmentswould preserve the large variable gene diversity as well as the properregulation of antibody production and expression. By exploiting themouse machinery for antibody diversification and selection and the lackof immunological tolerance to human proteins, the reproduced humanantibody repertoire in these mouse strains should yield high affinityantibodies against any antigen of interest, including human antigens.Using the hybridoma technology, antigen-specific human mAbs with thedesired specificity could be readily produced and selected. This generalstrategy was demonstrated in connection with the generation of the firstXenoMouse mouse strains (see Green et al. Nature Genetics 7:13-21(1994)). The XenoMouse strains were engineered with yeast artificialchromosomes (YACs) containing 245 kb and 190 kb-sized germlineconfiguration fragments of the human heavy chain locus and kappa lightchain locus, respectively, which contained core variable and constantregion sequences. The human Ig containing YACs proved to be compatiblewith the mouse system for both rearrangement and expression ofantibodies and were capable of substituting for the inactivated mouse Iggenes. This was demonstrated by their ability to induce B celldevelopment, to produce an adult-like human repertoire of fully humanantibodies, and to generate antigen-specific human mAbs. These resultsalso suggested that introduction of larger portions of the human Ig locicontaining greater numbers of V genes, additional regulatory elements,and human Ig constant regions might recapitulate substantially the fullrepertoire that is characteristic of the human humoral response toinfection and immunization. The work of Green et al. was recentlyextended to the introduction of greater than approximately 80% of thehuman antibody repertoire through introduction of megabase sized,germline configuration YAC fragments of the human heavy chain loci andkappa light chain loci, respectively. See Mendez et al. Nature Genetics15:146-156 (1997) and U.S. patent application Ser. No. 08/759,620.

In an alternative approach, others, including GenPharm International,Inc., have utilized a “minilocus” approach. In the minilocus approach,an exogenous Ig locus is mimicked through the inclusion of pieces(individual genes) from the Ig locus. Thus, one or more VH genes, one ormore DH genes, one or more JH genes, a mu constant region, and a secondconstant region (preferably a gamma constant region) are formed into aconstruct for insertion into an animal.

Kirin has also demonstrated the generation of human antibodies from micein which, through microcell fusion, large pieces of chromosomes, orentire chromosomes, have been introduced. See European PatentApplication Nos. 773 288 and 843 961. Xenerex Biosciences is developinga technology for the potential generation of human antibodies. In thistechnology, SCID mice are reconstituted with human lymphatic cells,e.g., B and/or T cells. Mice are then immunized with an antigen and cangenerate an immune response against the antigen. See U.S. Pat. Nos.5,476,996; 5,698,767; and 5,958,765.

Human anti-mouse antibody (HAMA) responses have led the industry toprepare chimeric or otherwise humanized antibodies. It is howeverexpected that certain human anti-chimeric antibody (HACA) responses willbe observed, particularly in chronic or multi-dose utilizations of theantibody. Thus, it would be desirable to provide antibody constructscomprising a human binding domain against DLL3 and/or a human bindingdomain against CD3 in order to vitiate concerns and/or effects of HAMAor HACA response.

The terms “(specifically) binds to”, (specifically) recognizes”, “is(specifically) directed to”, and “(specifically) reacts with” mean inaccordance with this invention that a binding domain interacts orspecifically interacts with a given epitope or a given target site onthe target molecules (antigens), here: DLL3 and CD3, respectively.

The term “epitope” refers to a site on an antigen to which a bindingdomain, an antibody or immunoglobulin, or a derivative, fragment orvariant of an antibody or an immunoglobulin, specifically binds. An“epitope” is antigenic and thus the term epitope is sometimes alsoreferred to herein as “antigenic structure” or “antigenic determinant”.Thus, the binding domain is an “antigen interaction site”. Saidbinding/interaction is also understood to define a “specificrecognition”.

“Epitopes” can be formed both by contiguous amino acids ornon-contiguous amino acids juxtaposed by tertiary folding of a protein.A “linear epitope” is an epitope where an amino acid primary sequencecomprises the recognized epitope. A linear epitope typically includes atleast 3 or at least 4, and more usually, at least 5 or at least 6 or atleast 7, for example, about 8 to about 10 amino acids in a uniquesequence.

A “conformational epitope”, in contrast to a linear epitope, is anepitope wherein the primary sequence of the amino acids comprising theepitope is not the sole defining component of the epitope recognized(e.g., an epitope wherein the primary sequence of amino acids is notnecessarily recognized by the binding domain). Typically aconformational epitope comprises an increased number of amino acidsrelative to a linear epitope. With regard to recognition ofconformational epitopes, the binding domain recognizes athree-dimensional structure of the antigen, preferably a peptide orprotein or fragment thereof (in the context of the present invention,the antigenic structure for the first binding domain is comprised withinthe DLL3 protein). For example, when a protein molecule folds to form athree-dimensional structure, certain amino acids and/or the polypeptidebackbone forming the conformational epitope become juxtaposed enablingthe antibody to recognize the epitope. Methods of determining theconformation of epitopes include, but are not limited to, x-raycrystallography, two-dimensional nuclear magnetic resonance (2D-NMR)spectroscopy and site-directed spin labelling and electron paramagneticresonance (EPR) spectroscopy.

A method for epitope mapping is described in the following: When aregion (a contiguous amino acid stretch) in the human DLL3 protein isexchanged/replaced with its corresponding region of a non-human andnon-primate DLL3 antigen (e.g., mouse DLL3, but others like chicken,rat, hamster, rabbit etc. might also be conceivable), a decrease in thebinding of the binding domain is expected to occur, unless the bindingdomain is cross-reactive for the non-human, non-primate DLL3 used. Saiddecrease is preferably at least 10%, 20%, 30%, 40%, or 50%; morepreferably at least 60%, 70%, or 80%, and most preferably 90%, 95% oreven 100% in comparison to the binding to the respective region in thehuman DLL3 protein, whereby binding to the respective region in thehuman DLL3 protein is set to be 100%. It is envisaged that theaforementioned human DLL3/non-human DLL3 chimeras are expressed in CHOcells. It is also envisaged that the human DLL3/non-human DLL3 chimerasare fused with a transmembrane domain and/or cytoplasmic domain of adifferent membrane-bound protein such as EpCAM.

In an alternative or additional method for epitope mapping, severaltruncated versions of the human DLL3 extracellular domain can begenerated in order to determine a specific region that is recognized bya binding domain. In these truncated versions, the differentextracellular DLL3 domains/sub-domains or regions are stepwise deleted,starting from the N-terminus. The truncated DLL3 versions that weregenerated and used in the context of the present invention are depictedin FIG. 1. It is envisaged that the truncated DLL3 versions areexpressed in CHO cells. It is also envisaged that the truncated DLL3versions are fused with a transmembrane domain and/or cytoplasmic domainof a different membrane-bound protein such as EpCAM. It is alsoenvisaged that the truncated DLL3 versions encompass a signal peptidedomain at their N-terminus, for example a signal peptide derived frommouse IgG heavy chain signal peptide. It is furthermore envisaged thatthe truncated DLL3 versions encompass a v5 domain at their N-terminus(following the signal peptide) which allows verifying their correctexpression on the cell surface. A decrease or a loss of binding isexpected to occur with those truncated DLL3 versions which do notencompass any more the DLL3 region that is recognized by the bindingdomain. The decrease of binding is preferably at least 10%, 20%, 30%,40%, 50%; more preferably at least 60%, 70%, 80%, and most preferably90%, 95% or even 100%, whereby binding to the entire human DLL3 protein(or its extracellular region or domain) is set to be 100%. A method totest this loss of binding is described in Example 2.

A further method to determine the contribution of a specific residue ofa target antigen to the recognition by a antibody construct or bindingdomain is alanine scanning (see e.g. Morrison K L & Weiss G A. Cur OpinChem Biol. 2001 June; 5(3):302-7), where each residue to be analyzed isreplaced by alanine, e.g. via site-directed mutagenesis. Alanine is usedbecause of its non-bulky, chemically inert, methyl functional group thatnevertheless mimics the secondary structure references that many of theother amino acids possess. Sometimes bulky amino acids such as valine orleucine can be used in cases where conservation of the size of mutatedresidues is desired. Alanine scanning is a mature technology which hasbeen used for a long period of time.

The interaction between the binding domain and the epitope or the regioncomprising the epitope implies that a binding domain exhibitsappreciable affinity for the epitope/the region comprising the epitopeon a particular protein or antigen (here: DLL3 and CD3, respectively)and, generally, does not exhibit significant reactivity with proteins orantigens other than DLL3 or CD3. “Appreciable affinity” includes bindingwith an affinity of about 10⁻⁶ M (KD) or stronger. Preferably, bindingis considered specific when the binding affinity is about 10⁻¹² to 10⁻⁸M, 10⁻¹² to 10⁻⁹ M, 10⁻¹² to 10⁻¹⁹ M, 10⁻¹¹ to 10⁻⁸ M, preferably ofabout 10⁻¹¹ to 10⁻⁹ M. Whether a binding domain specifically reacts withor binds to a target can be tested readily by, inter alia, comparing thereaction of said binding domain with a target protein or antigen withthe reaction of said binding domain with proteins or antigens other thanDLL3 or CD3. Preferably, a binding domain of the invention does notessentially or substantially bind to proteins or antigens other thanDLL3 or CD3 (i.e., the first binding domain is not capable of binding toproteins other than DLL3 and the second binding domain is not capable ofbinding to proteins other than CD3).

The term “does not essentially/substantially bind” or “is not capable ofbinding” means that a binding domain of the present invention does notbind a protein or antigen other than DLL3 or CD3, i.e., does not showreactivity of more than 30%, preferably not more than 20%, morepreferably not more than 10%, particularly preferably not more than 9%,8%, 7%, 6% or 5% with proteins or antigens other than DLL3 or CD3,whereby binding to DLL3 or CD3, respectively, is set to be 100%.

It is also envisaged that the antibody constructs of the presentinvention bind to a human DLL3 isoform having one or both of thefollowing DLL3 point mutations: F172C and L218P. See Example 5.

Specific binding is believed to be effected by specific motifs in theamino acid sequence of the binding domain and the antigen. Thus, bindingis achieved as a result of their primary, secondary and/or tertiarystructure as well as the result of secondary modifications of saidstructures. The specific interaction of the antigen-interaction-sitewith its specific antigen may result in a simple binding of said site tothe antigen. Moreover, the specific interaction of theantigen-interaction-site with its specific antigen may alternatively oradditionally result in the initiation of a signal, e.g. due to theinduction of a change of the conformation of the antigen, anoligomerization of the antigen, etc.

The antibody constructs according to the invention bind to an epitope ofDLL3 which is comprised within the region as depicted in SEQ ID NO: 260,corresponding to an amino acid stretch encompassing the regions EGF-3and EGF-4. Other groups of anti-DLL3 binders were also generated andtheir DLL3 binding specificities were identified during epitope mapping(see Example 2).

The largest group of generated binders recognized an epitope within theDSL domain. However, none of those antibody constructs fulfilled thecriteria for sufficient cytotoxic activity in an initial 18-hour⁵¹Cr-based cytotoxicity assay with stimulated human CD8+ T cells aseffector cells and hu DLL3 transfected CHO cells as target cells.

In a further initial 48 hour FACS-based cytotoxicity assay (usingunstimulated human PBMC as effector cells and hu DLL3 transfected CHOcells as target cells), those binders that recognized a DLL3 epitopewithin the N-terminus of the protein had EC50 values between 1455 and1580 pM. In the present context, these values are not consideredadequate for bispecific antibodies that are provided for a therapeuticuse in directing a patient's immune system, more specifically the Tcells' cytotoxic activity, against cancer cells.

Finally, another group of binders was generated and characterized forits cytotoxic activity in a variety of assays. The epitope mapping ofthese binders revealed a specificity for a DLL3 epitope comprised withinthe EGF-5 region, and to some extend also within the EGF-6 region (fordetails, see Example 2). An overall view of the data generated in thedifferent cytotoxicity assays (see Examples 8.3, 8.5, 8.6 and 8.7) forthese binders denominated DLL3-18, DLL3-19, DLL3-20 and DLL3-21 revealedthe following: While not all of the binders fail in all of the assays interms of favorable EC50 values, the entire group clearly underperformsif compared with the antibody constructs according to the invention.This observation is highlighted with a darker shadowing of the resultsshown in Tables 6-9.

In summary, it can clearly be stated that the antibody constructsaccording to the invention (which bind to an epitope of DLL3 comprisedwithin the region as depicted in SEQ ID NO: 260) show by far the bestactivity performance compared to a variety of other groups of DLL3binders having different epitope specificities. In other words, theantibody constructs according to the invention present with a favorableepitope-activity relationship, hence supporting potent bispecificantibody construct mediated cytotoxic activity.

In another aspect, the present invention provides a bispecific antibodyconstruct comprising a first binding domain which binds to human DLL3 onthe surface of a target cell and a second binding domain which binds tohuman CD3 on the surface of a T cell, wherein the first binding domainbinds to an epitope of DLL3 which is comprised within the region asdepicted in SEQ ID NO: 258.

Preferably, the first binding domain of the bispecific antibodyconstruct of the invention comprises a VH region comprising CDR-H1,CDR-H2 and CDR-H3 and a VL region comprising CDR-L1, CDR-L2 and CDR-L3selected from the group consisting of:

The term “variable” refers to the portions of the antibody orimmunoglobulin domains that exhibit variability in their sequence andthat are involved in determining the specificity and binding affinity ofa particular antibody (i.e., the “variable domain(s)”). The pairing of avariable heavy chain (VH) and a variable light chain (VL) together formsa single antigen-binding site.

Variability is not evenly distributed throughout the variable domains ofantibodies; it is concentrated in sub-domains of each of the heavy andlight chain variable regions. These sub-domains are called“hypervariable regions” or “complementarity determining regions” (CDRs).The more conserved (i.e., non-hypervariable) portions of the variabledomains are called the “framework” regions (FRM or FR) and provide ascaffold for the six CDRs in three dimensional space to form anantigen-binding surface. The variable domains of naturally occurringheavy and light chains each comprise four FRM regions (FR1, FR2, FR3,and FR4), largely adopting a β-sheet configuration, connected by threehypervariable regions, which form loops connecting, and in some casesforming part of, the β-sheet structure. The hypervariable regions ineach chain are held together in close proximity by the FRM and, with thehypervariable regions from the other chain, contribute to the formationof the antigen-binding site (see Kabat et al., loc. cit.).

The terms “CDR”, and its plural “CDRs”, refer to the complementaritydetermining region of which three make up the binding character of alight chain variable region (CDR-L1, CDR-L2 and CDR-L3) and three makeup the binding character of a heavy chain variable region (CDR-H1,CDR-H2 and CDR-H3). CDRs contain most of the residues responsible forspecific interactions of the antibody with the antigen and hencecontribute to the functional activity of an antibody molecule: they arethe main determinants of antigen specificity.

The exact definitional CDR boundaries and lengths are subject todifferent classification and numbering systems. CDRs may therefore bereferred to by Kabat, Chothia, contact or any other boundarydefinitions, including the numbering system described herein. Despitediffering boundaries, each of these systems has some degree of overlapin what constitutes the so called “hypervariable regions” within thevariable sequences. CDR definitions according to these systems maytherefore differ in length and boundary areas with respect to theadjacent framework region. See for example Kabat (an approach based oncross-species sequence variability), Chothia (an approach based oncrystallographic studies of antigen-antibody complexes), and/orMacCallum (Kabat et al., loc. cit.; Chothia et al., J. Mol. Biol, 1987,196: 901-917; and MacCallum et al., J. Mol. Biol, 1996, 262: 732). Stillanother standard for characterizing the antigen binding site is the AbMdefinition used by Oxford Molecular's AbM antibody modeling software.See, e.g., Protein Sequence and Structure Analysis of Antibody VariableDomains. In: Antibody Engineering Lab Manual (Ed.: Duebel, S. andKontermann, R., Springer-Verlag, Heidelberg). To the extent that tworesidue identification techniques define regions of overlapping, but notidentical regions, they can be combined to define a hybrid CDR. However,the numbering in accordance with the so-called Kabat system ispreferred.

Typically, CDRs form a loop structure that can be classified as acanonical structure. The term “canonical structure” refers to the mainchain conformation that is adopted by the antigen binding (CDR) loops.From comparative structural studies, it has been found that five of thesix antigen binding loops have only a limited repertoire of availableconformations. Each canonical structure can be characterized by thetorsion angles of the polypeptide backbone. Correspondent loops betweenantibodies may, therefore, have very similar three dimensionalstructures, despite high amino acid sequence variability in most partsof the loops (Chothia and Lesk, J. Mol. Biol., 1987, 196: 901; Chothiaet al., Nature, 1989, 342: 877; Martin and Thornton, J. Mol. Biol, 1996,263: 800). Furthermore, there is a relationship between the adopted loopstructure and the amino acid sequences surrounding it. The conformationof a particular canonical class is determined by the length of the loopand the amino acid residues residing at key positions within the loop,as well as within the conserved framework (i.e., outside of the loop).Assignment to a particular canonical class can therefore be made basedon the presence of these key amino acid residues.

The term “canonical structure” may also include considerations as to thelinear sequence of the antibody, for example, as catalogued by Kabat(Kabat et al., loc. cit.). The Kabat numbering scheme (system) is awidely adopted standard for numbering the amino acid residues of anantibody variable domain in a consistent manner and is the preferredscheme applied in the present invention as also mentioned elsewhereherein. Additional structural considerations can also be used todetermine the canonical structure of an antibody. For example, thosedifferences not fully reflected by Kabat numbering can be described bythe numbering system of Chothia et al. and/or revealed by othertechniques, for example, crystallography and two- or three-dimensionalcomputational modeling. Accordingly, a given antibody sequence may beplaced into a canonical class which allows for, among other things,identifying appropriate chassis sequences (e.g., based on a desire toinclude a variety of canonical structures in a library). Kabat numberingof antibody amino acid sequences and structural considerations asdescribed by Chothia et al., loc. cit. and their implications forconstruing canonical aspects of antibody structure, are described in theliterature. The subunit structures and three-dimensional configurationsof different classes of immunoglobulins are well known in the art. For areview of the antibody structure, see Antibodies: A Laboratory Manual,Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory, eds. Harlow et al., 1988.

The CDR3 of the light chain and, particularly, the CDR3 of the heavychain may constitute the most important determinants in antigen bindingwithin the light and heavy chain variable regions. In some antibodyconstructs, the heavy chain CDR3 appears to constitute the major area ofcontact between the antigen and the antibody. In vitro selection schemesin which CDR3 alone is varied can be used to vary the binding propertiesof an antibody or determine which residues contribute to the binding ofan antigen. Hence, CDR3 is typically the greatest source of moleculardiversity within the antibody-binding site. H3, for example, can be asshort as two amino acid residues or greater than 26 amino acids.

In a classical full-length antibody or immunoglobulin, each light (L)chain is linked to a heavy (H) chain by one covalent disulfide bond,while the two H chains are linked to each other by one or more disulfidebonds depending on the H chain isotype. The CH domain most proximal toVH is usually designated as CH1. The constant (“C”) domains are notdirectly involved in antigen binding, but exhibit various effectorfunctions, such as antibody-dependent, cell-mediated cytotoxicity andcomplement activation. The Fc region of an antibody is comprised withinthe heavy chain constant domains and is for example able to interactwith cell surface located Fc receptors.

The sequence of antibody genes after assembly and somatic mutation ishighly varied, and these varied genes are estimated to encode 10¹⁰different antibody molecules (Immunoglobulin Genes, 2nd ed., eds. Jonioet al., Academic Press, San Diego, Calif., 1995). Accordingly, theimmune system provides a repertoire of immunoglobulins. The term“repertoire” refers to at least one nucleotide sequence derived whollyor partially from at least one sequence encoding at least oneimmunoglobulin. The sequence(s) may be generated by rearrangement invivo of the V, D, and J segments of heavy chains, and the V and Jsegments of light chains. Alternatively, the sequence(s) can begenerated from a cell in response to which rearrangement occurs, e.g.,in vitro stimulation. Alternatively, part or all of the sequence(s) maybe obtained by DNA splicing, nucleotide synthesis, mutagenesis, andother methods, see, e.g., U.S. Pat. No. 5,565,332. A repertoire mayinclude only one sequence or may include a plurality of sequences,including ones in a genetically diverse collection.

A preferred antibody construct according to the invention can also bedefined as a bispecific antibody construct comprising a first(preferably human) binding domain which binds to human DLL3 on thesurface of a target cell and a second binding domain which binds tohuman CD3 on the surface of a T cell, wherein the first binding domainbinds to the same epitope of DLL3 as an antibody selected from the groupconsisting of DLL3-4, DLL3-5, DLL3-6, DLL3-7, DLL3-8, DLL3-9, andDLL3-10, i.e., an antibody comprising a VH region comprising CDR-H1,CDR-H2 and CDR-H3 and a VL region comprising CDR-L1, CDR-L2 and CDR-L3selected from the group consisting of:

a) CDR-H1 as depicted in SEQ ID NO: 31, CDR-H2 as depicted in SEQ ID NO:32, CDR-H3 as depicted in SEQ ID NO: 33, CDR-L1 as depicted in SEQ IDNO: 34, CDR-L2 as depicted in SEQ ID NO: 35 and CDR-L3 as depicted inSEQ ID NO: 36;

Whether or not an antibody construct binds to the same epitope of DLL3as another given antibody construct can be measured e.g. by epitopemapping with chimeric or truncated target molecules, e.g. as describedherein above and in Example 2.

A preferred antibody construct according to the invention can also bedefined as a bispecific antibody construct comprising a first(preferably human) binding domain which binds to human DLL3 on thesurface of a target cell and a second binding domain which binds tohuman CD3 on the surface of a T cell, wherein the first binding domaincompetes for binding with an antibody selected from the group consistingof DLL3-4, DLL3-5, DLL3-6, DLL3-7, DLL3-8, DLL3-9, and DLL3-10, i.e., anantibody comprising a VH region comprising CDR-H1, CDR-H2 and CDR-H3 anda VL region comprising CDR-L1, CDR-L2 and CDR-L3 selected from the groupconsisting of those described above.

Whether or not an antibody construct competes for binding with anothergiven antibody construct can be measured in a competition assay such asa competitive ELISA or a cell-based competition assay. Avidin-coupledmicroparticles (beads) can also be used. Similar to an avidin-coatedELISA plate, when reacted with a biotinylated protein, each of thesebeads can be used as a substrate on which an assay can be performed.Antigen is coated onto a bead and then precoated with the firstantibody. The second antibody is added and any additional binding isdetermined. Read-out occurs via flow cytometry.

In one embodiment of the invention, the first binding domain of theantibody construct of the invention comprises a VH region selected fromthe group consisting of those depicted in SEQ ID NO: 37, SEQ ID NO: 47,SEQ ID NO: 57, SEQ ID NO: 67, SEQ ID NO: 77, SEQ ID NO: 87, SEQ ID NO:97, SEQ ID NO: 107, SEQ ID NO: 117, SEQ ID NO: 435 and SEQ ID NO: 529.

In a further embodiment, the first binding domain of the antibodyconstruct of the invention comprises a VL region selected from the groupconsisting of those depicted in SEQ ID NO: 38, SEQ ID NO: 48, SEQ ID NO:58, SEQ ID NO: 68, SEQ ID NO: 78, SEQ ID NO: 88, SEQ ID NO: 98, SEQ IDNO: 108, SEQ ID NO: 118, SEQ ID NO: 436 and SEQ ID NO: 530.

In another embodiment, the first binding domain of the antibodyconstruct of the invention comprises a VH region and a VL regionselected from the group consisting of pairs of a VH region and a VLregion as depicted in SEQ ID NOs: 37+38; SEQ ID NOs: 47+48; SEQ ID NOs:57+58; SEQ ID NOs: 67+68; SEQ ID NOs: 77+78; SEQ ID NOs: 87+88; SEQ IDNOs: 97+98; SEQ ID NOs: 107+108; SEQ ID NOs: 117+118; SEQ ID NOs:435+436; and SEQ ID Nos: 529+530.

In yet a further embodiment, the first binding domain of the antibodyconstruct of the invention comprises a polypeptide selected from thegroup consisting of those depicted in SEQ ID NO: 39, SEQ ID NO: 49, SEQID NO: 59, SEQ ID NO: 69, SEQ ID NO: 79, SEQ ID NO: 89, SEQ ID NO: 99,SEQ ID NO: 109, SEQ ID NO: 119, SEQ ID NO: 437 and SEQ ID NO: 531.

The above first binding domains (which are specified by their CDRs, VHregion and VL region and combinations thereof) characterize as bindingdomains which bind to a DLL3 epitope comprised within the region asdepicted in SEQ ID NO: 258.

The term “bispecific” as used herein refers to an antibody constructwhich is “at least bispecific”, i.e., it comprises at least a firstbinding domain and a second binding domain, wherein the first bindingdomain binds to one antigen or target (here: DLL3), and the secondbinding domain binds to another antigen or target (here: CD3).Accordingly, antibody constructs according to the invention comprisespecificities for at least two different antigens or targets. The term“bispecific antibody construct” of the invention also encompassesmultispecific antibody constructs such as trispecific antibodyconstructs, the latter ones including three binding domains, orconstructs having more than three (e.g. four, five . . . ) specificites.

Given that the antibody constructs according to the invention are (atleast) bispecific, they do not occur naturally and they are markedlydifferent from naturally occurring products. A “bispecific” antibodyconstruct or immunoglobulin is hence an artificial hybrid antibody orimmunoglobulin having at least two distinct binding sites with differentspecificities. Bispecific antibody constructs can be produced by avariety of methods including fusion of hybridomas or linking of Fab′fragments. See, e.g., Songsivilai & Lachmann, Clin. Exp. Immunol.79:315-321 (1990).

The at least two binding domains and the variable domains of theantibody construct of the present invention may or may not comprisepeptide linkers (spacer peptides). The term “peptide linker” comprisesin accordance with the present invention an amino acid sequence by whichthe amino acid sequences of one (variable and/or binding) domain andanother (variable and/or binding) domain of the antibody construct ofthe invention are linked with each other. An essential technical featureof such peptide linker is that it does not comprise any polymerizationactivity. Among the suitable peptide linkers are those described in U.S.Pat. Nos. 4,751,180 and 4,935,233 or WO 88/09344. The peptide linkerscan also be used to attach other domains or modules or regions (such ashalf-life extending domains) to the antibody construct of the invention.

In the event that a linker is used, this linker is preferably of alength and sequence sufficient to ensure that each of the first andsecond domains can, independently from one another, retain theirdifferential binding specificities. For peptide linkers which connectthe at least two binding domains (or two variable domains) in theantibody construct of the invention, those peptide linkers are preferredwhich comprise only a few number of amino acid residues, e.g. 12 aminoacid residues or less. Thus, peptide linkers of 12, 11, 10, 9, 8, 7, 6or 5 amino acid residues are preferred. An envisaged peptide linker withless than 5 amino acids comprises 4, 3, 2 or one amino acid(s), whereinGly-rich linkers are preferred. A particularly preferred “single” aminoacid in the context of said “peptide linker” is Gly. Accordingly, saidpeptide linker may consist of the single amino acid Gly. Anotherpreferred embodiment of a peptide linker is characterized by the aminoacid sequence Gly-Gly-Gly-Gly-Ser, i.e. Gly4Ser (SEQ ID NO: 286), orpolymers thereof, i.e. (Gly4Ser)x, where x is an integer of 1 or greater(e.g. 2 or 3). Preferred linkers are depicted in SEQ ID NOs: 285-293.The characteristics of said peptide linker, which comprise the absenceof the promotion of secondary structures, are known in the art and aredescribed e.g. in Dall'Acqua et al. (Biochem. (1998) 37, 9266-9273),Cheadle et al. (Mol Immunol (1992) 29, 21-30) and Raag and Whitlow(FASEB (1995) 9(1), 73-80). Peptide linkers which furthermore do notpromote any secondary structures are preferred. The linkage of saiddomains to each other can be provided, e.g., by genetic engineering, asdescribed in the examples. Methods for preparing fused and operativelylinked bispecific single chain constructs and expressing them inmammalian cells or bacteria are well-known in the art (e.g. WO 99/54440or Sambrook et al., Molecular Cloning: A Laboratory Manual, Cold SpringHarbor Laboratory Press, Cold Spring Harbor, N.Y., 2001).

As described herein above, the invention provides a preferred embodimentwherein the antibody construct is in a format selected from the groupconsisting of (scFv)2, scFv-single domain mAb, diabodies and oligomersof any of the afermentioned formats. The term “is in a format” does notexclude that the construct can be further modified, e.g. by attachmentor fusion to other moieties, as described herein.

According to a particularly preferred embodiment, and as documented inthe appended examples, the antibody construct of the invention is a“bispecific single chain antibody construct”, more prefereably abispecific “single chain Fv” (scFv). Although the two domains of the Fvfragment, VL and VH, are coded for by separate genes, they can bejoined, using recombinant methods, by a synthetic linker—as describedhereinbefore—that enables them to be made as a single protein chain inwhich the VL and VH regions pair to form a monovalent molecule; seee.g., Huston et al. (1988) Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci USA 85:5879-5883).These antibody fragments are obtained using conventional techniquesknown to those with skill in the art, and the fragments are evaluatedfor function in the same manner as are whole or full-length antibodies.A single-chain variable fragment (scFv) is hence a fusion protein of thevariable region of the heavy chain (VH) and of the light chain (VL) ofimmunoglobulins, usually connected with a short linker peptide of aboutten to about 25 amino acids, preferably about 15 to 20 amino acids. Thelinker is usually rich in glycine for flexibility, as well as serine orthreonine for solubility, and can either connect the N-terminus of theVH with the C-terminus of the VL, or vice versa. This protein retainsthe specificity of the original immunoglobulin, despite removal of theconstant regions and introduction of the linker.

Bispecific single chain molecules are known in the art and are describedin WO 99/54440, Mack, J. Immunol. (1997), 158, 3965-3970, Mack, PNAS,(1995), 92, 7021-7025, Kufer, Cancer Immunol. Immunother., (1997), 45,193-197, Löffler, Blood, (2000), 95, 6, 2098-2103, Brühl, Immunol.,(2001), 166, 2420-2426, Kipriyanov, J. Mol. Biol., (1999), 293, 41-56.Techniques described for the production of single chain antibodies (see,inter alia, U.S. Pat. No. 4,946,778, Kontermann and Dübel (2010), loc.cit. and Little (2009), loc. cit.) can be adapted to produce singlechain antibody constructs specifically recognizing (an) electedtarget(s).

Bivalent (also called divalent) or bispecific single-chain variablefragments (bi-scFvs or di-scFvs having the format (scFv)2 can beengineered by linking two scFv molecules (e.g. with linkers as describedhereinbefore). If these two scFv molecules have the same bindingspecificity, the resulting (scFv)2 molecule will preferably be calledbivalent (i.e. it has two valences for the same target epitope). If thetwo scFv molecules have different binding specificities, the resulting(scFv)2 molecule will preferably be called bispecific. The linking canbe done by producing a single peptide chain with two VH regions and twoVL regions, yielding tandem scFvs (see e.g. Kufer P. et al., (2004)Trends in Biotechnology 22(5):238-244). Another possibility is thecreation of scFv molecules with linker peptides that are too short forthe two variable regions to fold together (e.g. about five amino acids),forcing the scFvs to dimerize. This type is known as diabodies (see e.g.Hollinger, Philipp et al., (July 1993) Proceedings of the NationalAcademy of Sciences of the United States of America 90 (14): 6444-8.).

According to a further preferred embodiment of the antibody construct ofthe invention the heavy chain (VH) and the light chain (VL) of a bindingdomain (binding either to the target antigen DLL3 or to CD3) are notdirectly connected via a peptide linker as described above, but thebinding domains are formed as described for the diabody. Thus, the VH ofthe CD3 binding domain may be fused to the VL of the DLL3 binding domainvia a peptide linker, and the VH of the DLL3 binding domain is fused tothe VL of the CD3 binding domain via such peptide linker.

Single domain antibodies comprise merely one (monomeric) antibodyvariable domain which is able to bind selectively to a specific antigen,independently of other V regions or domains. The first single domainantibodies were engineered from havy chain antibodies found in camelids,and these are called VHH fragments. Cartilaginous fishes also have heavychain antibodies (IgNAR) from which single domain antibodies called VNARfragments can be obtained. An alternative approach is to split thedimeric variable domains from common immunoglobulins e.g. from humans orrodents into monomers, hence obtaining VH or VL as a single domain Ab.Although most research into single domain antibodies is currently basedon heavy chain variable domains, nanobodies derived from light chainshave also been shown to bind specifically to target epitopes. Examplesof single domain antibodies are called sdAb, nanobodies or singlevariable domain antibodies.

A (single domain mAb)2 is hence a monoclonal antibody construct composedof (at least) two single domain monoclonal antibodies, which areindividually selected from the group comprising VH, VL, VHH and VNAR.The linker is preferably in the form of a peptide linker. Similarly, an“scFv-single domain mAb” is a monoclonal antibody construct composed ofat least one single domain antibody as described above and one scFvmolecule as described above. Again, the linker is preferably in the formof a peptide linker.

It is furthermore envisaged that the present invention provides abispecific antibody construct comprising a first binding domain whichbinds to human DLL3 on the surface of a target cell and a second bindingdomain which binds to human CD3 on the surface of a T cell, wherein thefirst binding domain binds to an epitope of DLL3 which is comprisedwithin the region as depicted in SEQ ID NO: 259.

Accordingly, in a further aspect of the invention, the first bindingdomain of the bispecific antibody construct comprises a VH regioncomprising CDR-H1, CDR-H2 and CDR-H3 and a VL region comprising CDR-L1,CDR-L2 and CDR-L3 selected from the group consisting of:

In a further embodiment, the first binding domain of the antibodyconstruct of the invention comprises a polypeptide selected from thegroup consisting of those depicted in SEQ ID NO: 129, SEQ ID NO: 139,SEQ ID NO: 149, SEQ ID NO: 159, SEQ ID NO: 169, SEQ ID NO: 471, SEQ IDNO: 472, SEQ ID NO: 473, SEQ ID NO: 474, SEQ ID NO: 475, SEQ ID NO: 476,SEQ ID NO: 477, SEQ ID NO: 478, SEQ ID NO: 479, SEQ ID NO: 480, SEQ IDNO: 481, SEQ ID NO: 482, SEQ ID NO: 483, SEQ ID NO: 484, SEQ ID NO: 485,SEQ ID NO: 486, SEQ ID NO: 487, SEQ ID NO: 488, SEQ ID NO: 489, SEQ IDNO: 490, SEQ ID NO: 491, SEQ ID NO: 492, and SEQ ID NO: 493.

The above first binding domains (which are specified by their CDRs, VHregion and VL region and combinations thereof) characterize as bindingdomains which bind to a DLL3 epitope comprised within the region asdepicted in SEQ ID NO: 259.

Another preferred antibody construct according to the invention can alsobe defined as a bispecific antibody construct comprising a first(preferably human) binding domain which binds to human DLL3 on thesurface of a target cell and a second binding domain which binds tohuman CD3 on the surface of a T cell, wherein the first binding domainbinds to the same epitope of DLL3 as an antibody selected from the groupconsisting of DLL3-13, DLL3-14, and DLL3-15, i.e., an antibodycomprising a VH region comprising CDR-H1, CDR-H2 and CDR-H3 and a VLregion comprising CDR-L1, CDR-L2 and CDR-L3 selected from the groupconsisting of:

a) CDR-H1 as depicted in SEQ ID NO: 121, CDR-H2 as depicted in SEQ IDNO: 122, CDR-H3 as depicted in SEQ ID NO: 123, CDR-L1 as depicted in SEQID NO: 124, CDR-L2 as depicted in SEQ ID NO: 125 and CDR-L3 as depictedin SEQ ID NO: 126;

Another preferred antibody construct according to the invention can alsobe defined as a bispecific antibody construct comprising a first(preferably human) binding domain which binds to human DLL3 on thesurface of a target cell and a second binding domain which binds tohuman CD3 on the surface of a T cell, wherein the first binding domaincompetes for binding with an antibody selected from the group consistingof DLL3-13, DLL3-14, and DLL3-15, i.e., an antibody comprising a VHregion comprising CDR-H1, CDR-H2 and CDR-H3 and a VL region comprisingCDR-L1, CDR-L2 and CDR-L3 selected from the group consisting of thosedescribed above.

It is also envisaged that the antibody construct of the invention has,in addition to its function to bind to the target molecules DLL3 andCD3, a further function. In this format, the antibody construct is atrifunctional or multifunctional antibody construct by targeting targetcells through binding to DLL3, mediating cytotoxic T cell activitythrough CD3 binding and providing a further function such as a fullyfunctional Fc constant domain mediating antibody-dependent cellularcytotoxicity through recruitment of effector cells like NK cells, alabel (fluorescent etc.), a therapeutic agent such as a toxin orradionuclide, and/or means to enhance serum half-life, etc.

Examples for means to extend serum half-life of the antibody constructsof the invention include peptides, proteins or domains of proteins,which are fused or otherwise attached to the antibody constructs. Thegroup of peptides, proteins or protein domains includes peptides bindingto other proteins with preferred pharmacokinetic profile in the humanbody such as serum albumin (see WO 2009/127691). An alternative conceptof such half-life extending peptides includes peptides binding to theneonatal Fc receptor (FcRn, see WO 2007/098420), which can also be usedin the constructs of the present invention. The concept of attachinglarger domains of proteins or complete proteins includes e.g. the fusionof human serum albumin, variants or mutants of human serum albumin (seeWO 2011/051489, WO 2012/059486, WO 2012/150319, WO 2013/135896, WO2014/072481, WO 2013/075066) or domains thereof as well as the fusion ofconstant region of immunoglobulins (Fc domains) and variants thereof.Such variants of Fc domains may be optimized/modified in order to allowthe desired pairing of dimers or mulimers, to abolish Fc receptorbinding (e.g. the Fcγ receptor) or for other reasons. A further conceptknown in the art to extend the half-life of small protein compounds inthe human body is the pegylation of those compounds such as the antibodyconstruct of the present invention.

In a preferred embodiment, the bispecific antibody constructs accordingto the invention may be linked (e.g. via peptide bond) with a fusionpartner (such as a protein or polypeptide or peptide), e.g. for thepurpose of extending the construct's serum half-life. These fusionpartners can be selected from human serum albumin (“HSA” or “HALB”) aswells as sequence variants thereof, peptides binding to HSA, peptidesbinding to FcRn (“FcRn BP”), or constructs comprising an (antibodyderived) Fc region. Exemplary sequences of these fusion partners aredepticed in SEQ ID NOs: 295-341. In general, the fusion partners may belinked to the N-terminus or to the C-terminus of the bispecific antibodyconstructs according to the invention, either directly (e.g. via peptidebond) or through a peptide linker such as (GGGGS)n (wherein “n” is aninteger of 2 or greater, e.g. 2 or 3 or 4). Suitable peptide linkers aredepticed in SEQ ID NOs: 285-293.

For example, a preferred bispecific antibody construct of the presentinvention comprises or consists of a polypeptide selected from the groupconsisting of those depicted in: SEQ ID NO: 224, SEQ ID NO: 225, SEQ IDNO: 226, SEQ ID NO: 227, SEQ ID NO: 228, SEQ ID NO: 229, SEQ ID NO: 230,SEQ ID NO: 231, SEQ ID NO: 232, SEQ ID NO: 233, SEQ ID NO: 234, SEQ IDNO: 235, SEQ ID NO: 236, SEQ ID NO: 237; SEQ ID NO: 242, SEQ ID NO: 243,SEQ ID NO: 244, SEQ ID NO: 245, SEQ ID NO: 246, SEQ ID NO: 247, SEQ IDNO: 248, SEQ ID NO: 249, SEQ ID NO: 250, and SEQ ID NO: 251.

As described above, several preferred antibody constructs of theinvention are modified by fusion with another moiety such as albumin oralbumin variants. If these fusion constructs are characterized for theirproperties, such as in particular their target affinity or cytotoxicactivity, the skilled person will be aware that similar fusionconstructs or unmodified bispecific antibody constructs can be expectedto have similar (or possibly even better) properties. For example, if abispecific antibody construct fused with albumin has an appreciable ordesirable cytotoxic activity or target affinity, it can be expected thatthe same/similar or even a higher cytotoxic activity/target affinitywill be observed for the same construct w/o albumin.

According to another preferred embodiment, the bispecific antibodyconstruct of the invention comprises (in addition to the two bindingdomains) a third domain which comprises two polypeptide monomers, eachcomprising a hinge, a CH2 and a CH3 domain, wherein said twopolypeptides (or polypeptide monomers) are fused to each other via apeptide linker. Preferably, said third domain comprises in an N- toC-terminal order: hinge-CH2-CH3-linker-hinge-CH2-CH3. Preferred aminoacid sequences for said third domain are depicted in SEQ ID NOs:541-548. Each of said polypeptide monomers preferably has an amino acidsequence that is selected from the group consisting of SEQ ID NOs:533-540, or that is at least 90% identical to those sequences. Inanother preferred embodiment, the first and second binding domains ofthe bispecific antibody construct of the invention are fused to thethird domain via a peptide linker which is for example selected from thegroup consisting of SEQ ID NOs: 285, 286, 288, 289, 290, 292 and 293.

In line with the present invention, a “hinge” is an IgG hinge region.This region can be identified by analogy using the Kabat numbering, seeKabat positions 223-243. In line with the above, the minimal requirementfor a “hinge” are the amino acid residues corresponding to the IgG1sequence stretch of D231 to P243 according to the Kabat numbering. Theterms CH2 and CH3 refer to the immunoglobulin heavy chain constantregions 2 and 3. These regions can as well be identified by analogyusing the Kabat numbering, see Kabat positions 244-360 for CH2 and Kabatpositions 361-478 for CH3. Is is understood that there is some variationbetween the immunoglobulins in terms of their IgG1 Fc region, IgG2 Fcregion, IgG3 Fc region, IgG4 Fc region, IgM Fc region, IgA Fc region,IgD Fc region and IgE Fc region (see, e.g., Padlan, MolecularImmunology, 31(3), 169-217 (1993)). The term Fc monomer refers to thelast two heavy chain constant regions of IgA, IgD, and IgG, and the lastthree heavy chain constant regions of IgE and IgM. The Fc monomer canalso include the flexible hinge N-terminal to these domains. For IgA andIgM, the Fc monomer may include the J chain. For IgG, the Fc portioncomprises immunoglobulin domains CH2 and CH3 and the hinge between thefirst two domains and CH2. Although the boundaries of the Fc portion ofan immunoglobulin may vary, an example for a human IgG heavy chain Fcportion comprising a functional hinge, CH2 and CH3 domain can be definede.g. to comprise residues D231 (of the hinge domain) to P476 (of theC-terminus of the CH3 domain), or D231 to L476, respectively, for IgG4,wherein the numbering is according to Kabat.

Hence, in a preferred embodiment, the antibody construct of the presentinvention comprises or consists of a polypeptide selected from the groupconsisting of those depicted in SEQ ID NO: 517, SEQ ID NO: 518, SEQ IDNO: 519, SEQ ID NO: 520, SEQ ID NO: 521, SEQ ID NO: 522, SEQ ID NO: 523,SEQ ID NO: 524, SEQ ID NO: 525, SEQ ID NO: 526, SEQ ID NO: 527, and SEQID NO: 528.

The sequence table (Table 18) also provides sequence variations of thebinders denominated DLL3-4 and DLL3-14. The point mutations that wereinserted into these sequence variants are identified according to theposition of this mutation within the respective scFv molecule. It isunderstood that an alternative way of identifying these positions isalso possible, depending on the polypeptide of reference, which could aswell be the CDR region or the VH/VL region. For example, the variantdenominated DLL3-4-001 has a G44C-G243C double mutation in its scFvmolecule (SEQ ID NO: 437). This translates into a G44C mutation in thecorresponding VH chain (SEQ ID NO: 435) and a G101C mutation in thecorresponding VL chain (SEQ ID NO: 436).

Covalent modifications of the antibody constructs are also includedwithin the scope of this invention, and are generally, but not always,done post-translationally. For example, several types of covalentmodifications of the antibody construct are introduced into the moleculeby reacting specific amino acid residues of the antibody construct withan organic derivatizing agent that is capable of reacting with selectedside chains or the N- or C-terminal residues.

Cysteinyl residues most commonly are reacted with α-haloacetates (andcorresponding amines), such as chloroacetic acid or chloroacetamide, togive carboxymethyl or carboxyamidomethyl derivatives. Cysteinyl residuesalso are derivatized by reaction with bromotrifluoroacetone,α-bromo-β-(5-imidozoyl)propionic acid, chloroacetyl phosphate,N-alkylmaleimides, 3-nitro-2-pyridyl disulfide, methyl 2-pyridyldisulfide, p-chloromercuribenzoate, 2-chloromercuri-4-nitrophenol, orchloro-7-nitrobenzo-2-oxa-1,3-diazole.

Histidyl residues are derivatized by reaction with diethylpyrocarbonateat pH 5.5-7.0 because this agent is relatively specific for the histidylside chain. Para-bromophenacyl bromide also is useful; the reaction ispreferably performed in 0.1 M sodium cacodylate at pH 6.0. Lysinyl andamino terminal residues are reacted with succinic or other carboxylicacid anhydrides. Derivatization with these agents has the effect ofreversing the charge of the lysinyl residues. Other suitable reagentsfor derivatizing alpha-amino-containing residues include imidoesterssuch as methyl picolinimidate; pyridoxal phosphate; pyridoxal;chloroborohydride; trinitrobenzenesulfonic acid; O-methylisourea;2,4-pentanedione; and transaminase-catalyzed reaction with glyoxylate.

Arginyl residues are modified by reaction with one or severalconventional reagents, among them phenylglyoxal, 2,3-butanedione,1,2-cyclohexanedione, and ninhydrin. Derivatization of arginine residuesrequires that the reaction be performed in alkaline conditions becauseof the high pKa of the guanidine functional group. Furthermore, thesereagents may react with the groups of lysine as well as the arginineepsilon-amino group.

The specific modification of tyrosyl residues may be made, withparticular interest in introducing spectral labels into tyrosyl residuesby reaction with aromatic diazonium compounds or tetranitromethane. Mostcommonly, N-acetylimidizole and tetranitromethane are used to form0-acetyl tyrosyl species and 3-nitro derivatives, respectively. Tyrosylresidues are iodinated using ¹²⁵I or ¹³¹I to prepare labeled proteinsfor use in radioimmunoassay, the chloramine T method described abovebeing suitable.

Carboxyl side groups (aspartyl or glutamyl) are selectively modified byreaction with carbodiimides (R′—N═C═N—R′), where R and R′ are optionallydifferent alkyl groups, such as 1-cyclohexyl-3-(2-morpholinyl-4-ethyl)carbodiimide or 1-ethyl-3-(4-azonia-4,4-dimethylpentyl) carbodiimide.Furthermore, aspartyl and glutamyl residues are converted to asparaginyland glutaminyl residues by reaction with ammonium ions.

Derivatization with bifunctional agents is useful for crosslinking theantibody constructs of the present invention to a water-insolublesupport matrix or surface for use in a variety of methods. Commonly usedcrosslinking agents include, e.g., 1,1-bis(diazoacetyl)-2-phenylethane,glutaraldehyde, N-hydroxysuccinimide esters, for example, esters with4-azidosalicylic acid, homobifunctional imidoesters, includingdisuccinimidyl esters such as 3,3′-dithiobis(succinimidylpropionate),and bifunctional maleimides such as bis-N-maleimido-1,8-octane.Derivatizing agents such asmethyl-3-[(p-azidophenyl)dithio]propioimidate yield photoactivatableintermediates that are capable of forming crosslinks in the presence oflight. Alternatively, reactive water-insoluble matrices such as cyanogenbromide-activated carbohydrates and the reactive substrates as describedin U.S. Pat. Nos. 3,969,287; 3,691,016; 4,195,128; 4,247,642; 4,229,537;and 4,330,440 are employed for protein immobilization.

Glutaminyl and asparaginyl residues are frequently deamidated to thecorresponding glutamyl and aspartyl residues, respectively.Alternatively, these residues are deamidated under mildly acidicconditions. Either form of these residues falls within the scope of thisinvention.

Other modifications include hydroxylation of proline and lysine,phosphorylation of hydroxyl groups of seryl or threonyl residues,methylation of the α-amino groups of lysine, arginine, and histidineside chains (T. E. Creighton, Proteins: Structure and MolecularProperties, W. H. Freeman & Co., San Francisco, 1983, pp. 79-86),acetylation of the N-terminal amine, and amidation of any C-terminalcarboxyl group.

Another type of covalent modification of the antibody constructsincluded within the scope of this invention comprises altering theglycosylation pattern of the protein. As is known in the art,glycosylation patterns can depend on both the sequence of the protein(e.g., the presence or absence of particular glycosylation amino acidresidues, discussed below), or the host cell or organism in which theprotein is produced. Particular expression systems are discussed below.

Glycosylation of polypeptides is typically either N-linked or O-linked.N-linked refers to the attachment of the carbohydrate moiety to the sidechain of an asparagine residue. The tri-peptide sequencesasparagine-X-serine and asparagine-X-threonine, where X is any aminoacid except proline, are the recognition sequences for enzymaticattachment of the carbohydrate moiety to the asparagine side chain.Thus, the presence of either of these tri-peptide sequences in apolypeptide creates a potential glycosylation site. O-linkedglycosylation refers to the attachment of one of the sugarsN-acetylgalactosamine, galactose, or xylose, to a hydroxyamino acid,most commonly serine or threonine, although 5-hydroxyproline or5-hydroxylysine may also be used.

Addition of glycosylation sites to the antibody construct isconveniently accomplished by altering the amino acid sequence such thatit contains one or more of the above-described tri-peptide sequences(for N-linked glycosylation sites). The alteration may also be made bythe addition of, or substitution by, one or more serine or threonineresidues to the starting sequence (for O-linked glycosylation sites).For ease, the amino acid sequence of an antibody construct is preferablyaltered through changes at the DNA level, particularly by mutating theDNA encoding the polypeptide at preselected bases such that codons aregenerated that will translate into the desired amino acids.

Another means of increasing the number of carbohydrate moieties on theantibody construct is by chemical or enzymatic coupling of glycosides tothe protein. These procedures are advantageous in that they do notrequire production of the protein in a host cell that has glycosylationcapabilities for N- and O-linked glycosylation. Depending on thecoupling mode used, the sugar(s) may be attached to (a) arginine andhistidine, (b) free carboxyl groups, (c) free sulfhydryl groups such asthose of cysteine, (d) free hydroxyl groups such as those of serine,threonine, or hydroxyproline, (e) aromatic residues such as those ofphenylalanine, tyrosine, or tryptophan, or (f) the amide group ofglutamine. These methods are described in WO 87/05330, and in Aplin andWriston, 1981, CRC Crit. Rev. Biochem., pp. 259-306.

Removal of carbohydrate moieties present on the starting antibodyconstruct may be accomplished chemically or enzymatically. Chemicaldeglycosylation requires exposure of the protein to the compoundtrifluoromethanesulfonic acid, or an equivalent compound. This treatmentresults in the cleavage of most or all sugars except the linking sugar(N-acetylglucosamine or N-acetylgalactosamine), while leaving thepolypeptide intact. Chemical deglycosylation is described by Hakimuddinet al., 1987, Arch. Biochem. Biophys. 259:52 and by Edge et al., 1981,Anal. Biochem. 118:131. Enzymatic cleavage of carbohydrate moieties onpolypeptides can be achieved by the use of a variety of endo- andexo-glycosidases as described by Thotakura et al., 1987, Meth. Enzymol.138:350. Glycosylation at potential glycosylation sites may be preventedby the use of the compound tunicamycin as described by Duskin et al.,1982, J. Biol. Chem. 257:3105. Tunicamycin blocks the formation ofprotein-N-glycoside linkages.

Other modifications of the antibody construct are also contemplatedherein. For example, another type of covalent modification of theantibody construct comprises linking the antibody construct to variousnon-proteinaceous polymers, including, but not limited to, variouspolyols such as polyethylene glycol, polypropylene glycol,polyoxyalkylenes, or copolymers of polyethylene glycol and polypropyleneglycol, in the manner set forth in U.S. Pat. Nos. 4,640,835; 4,496,689;4,301,144; 4,670,417; 4,791,192 or 4,179,337. In addition, as is knownin the art, amino acid substitutions may be made in various positionswithin the antibody construct, e.g. in order to facilitate the additionof polymers such as PEG.

In some embodiments, the covalent modification of the antibodyconstructs of the invention comprises the addition of one or morelabels. The labelling group may be coupled to the antibody construct viaspacer arms of various lengths to reduce potential steric hindrance.Various methods for labelling proteins are known in the art and can beused in performing the present invention. The term “label” or “labellinggroup” refers to any detectable label. In general, labels fall into avariety of classes, depending on the assay in which they are to bedetected—the following examples include, but are not limited to:

isotopic labels, which may be radioactive or heavy isotopes, such asradioisotopes or radionuclides (e.g., 3H, 14C, 15N, 35S, 89Zr, 90Y,99Tc, 111In, 125I, 131I)

magnetic labels (e.g., magnetic particles)

redox active moieties

enzymatic groups (e.g. horseradish peroxidase, β-galactosidase,luciferase, alkaline phosphatase)

biotinylated groups

predetermined polypeptide epitopes recognized by a secondary reporter(e.g., leucine zipper pair sequences, binding sites for secondaryantibodies, metal binding domains, epitope tags, etc.)

By “fluorescent label” is meant any molecule that may be detected viaits inherent fluorescent properties. Suitable fluorescent labelsinclude, but are not limited to, fluorescein, rhodamine,tetramethylrhodamine, eosin, erythrosin, coumarin, methyl-coumarins,pyrene, Malacite green, stilbene, Lucifer Yellow, Cascade BlueJ, TexasRed, IAEDANS, EDANS, BODIPY FL, LC Red 640, Cy 5, Cy 5.5, LC Red 705,Oregon green, the Alexa-Fluor dyes (Alexa Fluor 350, Alexa Fluor 430,Alexa Fluor 488, Alexa Fluor 546, Alexa Fluor 568, Alexa Fluor 594,Alexa Fluor 633, Alexa Fluor 660, Alexa Fluor 680), Cascade Blue,Cascade Yellow and R-phycoerythrin (PE) (Molecular Probes, Eugene,Oreg.), FITC, Rhodamine, and Texas Red (Pierce, Rockford, Ill.), Cy5,Cy5.5, Cy7 (Amersham Life Science, Pittsburgh, Pa.). Suitable opticaldyes, including fluorophores, are described in Molecular Probes Handbookby Richard P. Haugland.

Suitable proteinaceous fluorescent labels also include, but are notlimited to, green fluorescent protein, including a Renilla, Ptilosarcus,or Aequorea species of GFP (Chalfie et al., 1994, Science 263:802-805),EGFP (Clontech Laboratories, Inc., Genbank Accession Number U55762),blue fluorescent protein (BFP, Quantum Biotechnologies, Inc. 1801 deMaisonneuve Blvd. West, 8th Floor, Montreal, Quebec, Canada H3H 1J9;Stauber, 1998, Biotechniques 24:462-471; Heim et al., 1996, Curr. Biol.6:178-182), enhanced yellow fluorescent protein (EYFP, ClontechLaboratories, Inc.), luciferase (Ichiki et al., 1993, J. Immunol.150:5408-5417), β galactosidase (Nolan et al., 1988, Proc. Natl. Acad.Sci. U.S.A. 85:2603-2607) and Renilla (WO92/15673, WO95/07463,WO98/14605, WO98/26277, WO99/49019, U.S. Pat. Nos. 5,292,658; 5,418,155;5,683,888; 5,741,668; 5,777,079; 5,804,387; 5,874,304; 5,876,995;5,925,558).

Leucine zipper domains are peptides that promote oligomerization of theproteins in which they are found. Leucine zippers were originallyidentified in several DNA-binding proteins (Landschulz et al., 1988,Science 240:1759), and have since been found in a variety of differentproteins. Among the known leucine zippers are naturally occurringpeptides and derivatives thereof that dimerize or trimerize. Examples ofleucine zipper domains suitable for producing soluble oligomericproteins are described in PCT application WO 94/10308, and the leucinezipper derived from lung surfactant protein D (SPD) described in Hoppeet al., 1994, FEBS Letters 344:191. The use of a modified leucine zipperthat allows for stable trimerization of a heterologous protein fusedthereto is described in Fanslow et al., 1994, Semin. Immunol. 6:267-78.In one approach, recombinant fusion proteins comprising a DLL3 antibodyfragment or derivative fused to a leucine zipper peptide are expressedin suitable host cells, and the soluble oligomeric DLL3 antibodyfragments or derivatives that form are recovered from the culturesupernatant.

The antibody construct of the invention may also comprise additionaldomains, which are e.g. helpful in the isolation of the molecule orrelate to an adapted pharmacokinetic profile of the molecule. Domainshelpful for the isolation of an antibody construct may be selected frompeptide motives or secondarily introduced moieties, which can becaptured in an isolation method, e.g. an isolation column. Non-limitingembodiments of such additional domains comprise peptide motives known asMyc-tag, HAT-tag, HA-tag, TAP-tag, GST-tag, chitin binding domain(CBD-tag), maltose binding protein (MBP-tag), Flag-tag, Strep-tag andvariants thereof (e.g. StrepII-tag) and His-tag. All herein disclosedantibody constructs characterized by the identified CDRs are preferredto comprise a His-tag domain, which is generally known as a repeat ofconsecutive His residues in the amino acid sequence of a molecule,preferably of five, and more preferably of six His residues(hexa-histidine). The His-tag may be located e.g. at the N- orC-terminus of the antibody construct, preferably it is located at theC-terminus. Most preferably, a hexa-histidine tag (HHHHHH) is linked viapeptide bond to the C-terminus of the antibody construct according tothe invention.

The first binding domain of the antibody construct of the presentinvention binds to human DLL3 on the surface of a target cell. Thepreferred amino acid sequence of human DLL3 is represented by SEQ ID NO:252. It is understood that the term “on the surface”, in the context ofthe present invention, means that the binding domain specifically bindsto an epitope comprised within the DLL3 extracellular domain (DLL3 ECD).The first binding domain according to the invention hence preferablybinds to DLL3 when it is expressed by naturally expressing cells or celllines, and/or by cells or cell lines transformed or (stably/transiently)transfected with DLL3. In a preferred embodiment the first bindingdomain also binds to DLL3 when DLL3 is used as a “target” or “ligand”molecule in an in vitro binding assay such as BIAcore or Scatchard. The“target cell” can be any prokaryotic or eukaryotic cell expressing DLL3on its surface; preferably the target cell is a cell that is part of thehuman or animal body, such as a specific DLL3 expressing cancer or tumorcell.

The term “DLL3 ECD” refers to a form of DLL3 which is essentially freeof transmembrane and cytoplasmic domains of DLL3. It will be understoodby the skilled artisan that the transmembrane domain identified for theDLL3 polypeptide of the present invention is identified pursuant tocriteria routinely employed in the art for identifying that type ofhydrophobic domain. The exact boundaries of a transmembrane domain mayvary but most likely by no more than about 5 amino acids at either endof the domain specifically mentioned herein. A preferred human DLL3 ECDis shown in SEQ ID NO: 253.

The affinity of the first binding domain for human DLL3 is preferably≤20 nM, more preferably ≤10 nM, even more preferably ≤5 nM, even morepreferably ≤2 nM, even more preferably ≤1 nM, even more preferably ≤0.6nM, even more preferably ≤0.5 nM, and most preferably ≤0.4 nM. Theaffinity can be measured for example in a BIAcore assay or in aScatchard assay, e.g. as described in the Examples. Other methods ofdetermining the affinity are also well-known to the skilled person.

T cells or T lymphocytes are a type of lymphocyte (itself a type ofwhite blood cell) that play a central role in cell-mediated immunity.There are several subsets of T cells, each with a distinct function. Tcells can be distinguished from other lymphocytes, such as B cells andNK cells, by the presence of a T cell receptor (TCR) on the cellsurface. The TCR is responsible for recognizing antigens bound to majorhistocompatibility complex (MHC) molecules and is composed of twodifferent protein chains. In 95% of the T cells, the TCR consists of analpha (a) and beta (β) chain. When the TCR engages with antigenicpeptide and MHC (peptide/MHC complex), the T lymphocyte is activatedthrough a series of biochemical events mediated by associated enzymes,co-receptors, specialized adaptor molecules, and activated or releasedtranscription factors.

The CD3 receptor complex is a protein complex and is composed of fourchains. In mammals, the complex contains a CD3γ (gamma) chain, a CD3δ(delta) chain, and two CD3ε (epsilon) chains. These chains associatewith the T cell receptor (TCR) and the so-called (zeta) chain to formthe T cell receptor CD3 complex and to generate an activation signal inT lymphocytes. The CD3γ (gamma), CD3δ (delta), and CD3ε (epsilon) chainsare highly related cell-surface proteins of the immunoglobulinsuperfamily containing a single extracellular immunoglobulin domain. Theintracellular tails of the CD3 molecules contain a single conservedmotif known as an immunoreceptor tyrosine-based activation motif or ITAMfor short, which is essential for the signaling capacity of the TCR. TheCD3 epsilon molecule is a polypeptide which in humans is encoded by theCD3E gene which resides on chromosome 11. The most preferred epitope ofCD3 epsilon is comprised within amino acid residues 1-27 of the humanCD3 epsilon extracellular domain.

The redirected lysis of target cells via the recruitment of T cells by amultispecific, at least bispecific, antibody construct involvescytolytic synapse formation and delivery of perforin and granzymes. Theengaged T cells are capable of serial target cell lysis, and are notaffected by immune escape mechanisms interfering with peptide antigenprocessing and presentation, or clonal T cell differentiation; see, forexample, WO 2007/042261.

Cytotoxicity mediated by DLL3×CD3 bispecific antibody constructs can bemeasured in various ways. See Examples 8.1 to 8.7. Effector cells can bee.g. stimulated enriched (human) CD8 positive T cells or unstimulated(human) peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC). If the target cellsare of macaque origin or express or are transfected with macaque DLL3,the effector cells should also be of macaque origin such as a macaque Tcell line, e.g. 4119LnPx. The target cells should express (at least theextracellular domain of) DLL3, e.g. human or macaque DLL3. Target cellscan be a cell line (such as CHO) which is stably or transientlytransfected with DLL3, e.g. human or macaque DLL3. Alternatively, thetarget cells can be a DLL3 positive natural expresser cell line, such asthe human lung carcinoma cell line SHP-77. Usually EC50 values areexpected to be lower with target cell lines expressing higher levels ofDLL3 on the cell surface. The effector to target cell (E:T) ratio isusually about 10:1, but can also vary. Cytotoxic activity of DLL3×CD3bispecific antibody constructs can be measured in a 51-chromium releaseassay (incubation time of about 18 hours) or in a in a FACS-basedcytotoxicity assay (incubation time of about 48 hours). Modifications ofthe assay incubation time (cytotoxic reaction) are also possible. Othermethods of measuring cytotoxicity are well-known to the skilled personand comprise MTT or MTS assays, ATP-based assays includingbioluminescent assays, the sulforhodamine B (SRB) assay, WST assay,clonogenic assay and the ECIS technology.

The cytotoxic activity mediated by DLL3×CD3 bispecific antibodyconstructs of the present invention is preferably measured in acell-based cytotoxicity assay. It may also be measured in a 51-chromiumrelease assay. It is represented by the EC50 value, which corresponds tothe half maximal effective concentration (concentration of the antibodyconstruct which induces a cytotoxic response halfway between thebaseline and maximum). Preferably, the EC50 value of the DLL3×CD3bispecific antibody constructs is ≤5000 pM or ≤4000 pM, more preferably≤≤3000 pM or ≤≤2000 pM, even more preferably ≤1000 pM or ≤500 pM, evenmore preferably ≤400 pM or ≤300 pM, even more preferably ≤200 pM, evenmore preferably ≤100 pM, even more preferably ≤50 pM, even morepreferably ≤20 pM or ≤10 pM, and most preferably ≤5 pM.

The above given EC50 values can be measured in different assays. Theskilled person is aware that an EC50 value can be expected to be lowerwhen stimulated/enriched CD8+ T cells are used as effector cells,compared with unstimulated PBMC. It can furthermore be expected that theEC50 values are lower when the target cells express a high number of thetarget antigen compared with a low target expression rat. For example,when stimulated/enriched human CD8+ T cells are used as effector cells(and either DLL3 transfected cells such as CHO cells or a DLL3 positivehuman lung carcinoma cell line SHP-77 are used as target cells), theEC50 value of the DLL3 xCD3 bispecific antibody construct is preferably≤1000 pM, more preferably ≤500 pM, even more preferably ≤250 pM, evenmore preferably ≤100 pM, even more preferably ≤50 pM, even morepreferably ≤10 pM, and most preferably ≤5 pM. When human PBMCs are usedas effector cells, the EC50 value of the DLL3×CD3 bispecific antibodyconstruct is preferably ≤5000 pM or ≤4000 pM (in particular when thetarget cells are a DLL3 positive human lung carcinoma cell line SHP-77),more preferably ≤2000 pM (in particular when the target cells are DLL3transfected cells such as CHO cells), more preferably ≤1000 pM or ≤500pM, even more preferably ≤200 pM, even more preferably ≤150 pM, evenmore preferably ≤100 pM, and most preferably ≤50 pM, or lower. When amacaque T cell line such as LnPx4119 is used as effector cells, and amacaque DLL3 transfected cell line such as CHO cells is used as targetcell line, the EC50 value of the DLL3×CD3 bispecific antibody constructis preferably ≤2000 pM or ≤1500 pM, more preferably ≤1000 pM or ≤500 pM,even more preferably ≤300 pM or ≤250 pM, even more preferably ≤100 pM,and most preferably ≤50 pM.

Preferably, the DLL3×CD3 bispecific antibody constructs of the presentinvention do not induce/mediate lysis or do not essentiallyinduce/mediate lysis of DLL3 negative cells such as CHO cells. The term“do not induce lysis”, “do not essentially induce lysis”, “do notmediate lysis” or “do not essentially mediate lysis” means that anantibody construct of the present invention does not induce or mediatelysis of more than 30%, preferably not more than 20%, more preferablynot more than 10%, particularly preferably not more than 9%, 8%, 7%, 6%or 5% of DLL3 negative cells, whereby lysis of a DLL3 positive humanlung carcinoma cell line SHP-77 (see above) is set to be 100%. Thisusually applies for concentrations of the antibody construct of up to500 nM. The skilled person knows how to measure cell lysis withoutfurther ado. Moreover, the present specification teaches specificinstructions how to measure cell lysis.

The difference in cytotoxic activity between the monomeric and thedimeric isoform of individual DLL3×CD3 bispecific antibody constructs isreferred to as “potency gap”. This potency gap can e.g. be calculated asratio between EC50 values of the molecule's monomeric and dimeric form,see Example 15. Potency gaps of the DLL3×CD3 bispecific antibodyconstructs of the present invention are preferably ≤5, more preferably≤4, even more preferably ≤3, even more preferably ≤2 and most preferably≤1.

The first and/or the second (or any further) binding domain(s) of theantibody construct of the invention is/are preferably cross-speciesspecific for members of the mammalian order of primates. Cross-speciesspecific CD3 binding domains are, for example, described in WO2008/119567. According to one embodiment, the first and/or secondbinding domain, in addition to binding to human DLL3 and human CD3,respectively, will also bind to DLL3/CD3 of primates including (but notlimited to) new world primates (such as Callithrix jacchus, Saguinusoedipus or Saimiri sciureus), old world primates (such as baboons andmacaques), gibbons, orangutans and non-human homininae. It is envisagedthat the first binding domain of the antibody construct of the inventionwhich binds to human DLL3 on the surface of a target cell also binds atleast to macaque DLL3, and/or the second binding domain which binds tohuman CD3 on the surface of a T cell also binds at least to macaque CD3.A preferred macaque is Macaca fascicularis. Macaca mulatta (Rhesus) isalso envisaged.

A preferred bispecific antibody construct of the invention comprises afirst binding domain which binds to human DLL3 on the surface of atarget cell and a second binding domain which binds to human CD3 on thesurface of a T cell and at least macaque CD3. In one aspect of thisembodiment, the first binding domain binds to an epitope of DLL3 whichis comprised within the region as depicted in SEQ ID NO: 260.

In one aspect of the invention, the first binding domain binds to humanDLL3 and further binds to macaque DLL3, such as DLL3 of Macacafascicularis, and more preferably, to macaque DLL3 ECD. A preferredMacaca fascicularis DLL3 is depicted in SEQ ID NO: 271. A preferredmacaque DLL3 ECD is depicted in SEQ ID NO: 272. The affinity of thefirst binding domain for macaque DLL3 is preferably ≤15 nM, morepreferably ≤0 nM, even more preferably ≤5 nM, even more preferably ≤1nM, even more preferably ≤0.5 nM, even more preferably ≤0.1 nM, and mostpreferably ≤0.05 nM or even ≤0.01 nM.

Preferably the affinity gap of the antibody constructs according to theinvention for binding macaque DLL3 versus human DLL3 [ma DLL3:hu DLL3](as determined e.g. by BiaCore or by Scatchard analysis) is between 0.1and 10, more preferably between 0.2 and 5, even more preferably between0.3 and 4, even more preferably between 0.5 and 3 or between 0.5 and2.5, and most preferably between 0.5 and 2 or between 0.6 and 2.

According to a preferred embodiment of the antibody construct of thepresent invention, the binding domains and in particular the secondbinding domain (which binds to human CD3 on the surface of a T cell)have the following format: The pairs of VH regions and VL regions are inthe format of a single chain antibody (scFv). The VH and VL regions arearranged in the order VH-VL or VL-VH. It is preferred that the VH-regionis positioned N-terminally of a linker sequence, and the VL-region ispositioned C-terminally of the linker sequence.

A preferred embodiment of the above described antibody construct of thepresent invention is characterized by the second binding domain whichbinds to human CD3 on the surface of a T cell comprising an amino acidsequence selected from the group consisting of SEQ ID NOs: 23, 25, 41,43, 59, 61, 77, 79, 95, 97, 113, 115, 131, 133, 149, 151, 167, 169, 185or 187 of WO 2008/119567.

Hence, in one embodiment, the antibody construct of the inventioncomprises a polypeptide selected from the group consisting of thosedepicted in SEQ ID NO: 40, SEQ ID NO: 50, SEQ ID NO: 60, SEQ ID NO: 70,SEQ ID NO: 80, SEQ ID NO: 90, SEQ ID NO: 100, SEQ ID NO: 110, SEQ ID NO:120, SEQ ID NO: 211, SEQ ID NO: 212, SEQ ID NO: 213, SEQ ID NO: 214, SEQID NO: 215, SEQ ID NO: 216, SEQ ID NO: 217, SEQ ID NO: 438 and SEQ IDNO: 532. These antibody constructs have a first binding domain whichbinds to an epitope of DLL3 which is comprised within the region asdepicted in SEQ ID NO: 258.

In an alternative embodiment, the antibody construct of the inventioncomprises a polypeptide selected from the group consisting of thosedepicted in SEQ ID NO: 130, SEQ ID NO: 140, SEQ ID NO: 150, SEQ ID NO:160, SEQ ID NO: 170; SEQ ID NO: 218, SEQ ID NO: 219, SEQ ID NO: 220, SEQID NO: 494, SEQ ID NO: 495, SEQ ID NO: 496, SEQ ID NO: 497, SEQ ID NO:498, SEQ ID NO: 499, SEQ ID NO: 500, SEQ ID NO: 501, SEQ ID NO: 502, SEQID NO: 503, SEQ ID NO: 504, SEQ ID NO: 505, SEQ ID NO: 506, SEQ ID NO:507, SEQ ID NO: 508, SEQ ID NO: 509, SEQ ID NO: 510, SEQ ID NO: 511, SEQID NO: 512, SEQ ID NO: 513, SEQ ID NO: 514, SEQ ID NO: 515, and SEQ IDNO: 516. These antibody constructs have a first binding domain whichbinds to an epitope of DLL3 which is comprised within the region asdepicted in SEQ ID NO: 259.

Amino acid sequence modifications of the antibody constructs describedherein are also contemplated. For example, it may be desirable toimprove the binding affinity and/or other biological properties of theantibody construct. Amino acid sequence variants of the antibodyconstructs are prepared by introducing appropriate nucleotide changesinto the antibody constructs nucleic acid, or by peptide synthesis. Allof the below described amino acd sequence modifications should result inan antibody construct which still retains the desired biologicalactivity (binding to DLL3 and to CD3) of the unmodified parentalmolecule.

The term “amino acid” or “amino acid residue” typically refers to anamino acid having its art recognized definition such as an amino acidselected from the group consisting of: alanine (Ala or A); arginine (Argor R); asparagine (Asn or N); aspartic acid (Asp or D); cysteine (Cys orC); glutamine (GIn or Q); glutamic acid (Glu or E); glycine (Gly or G);histidine (His or H); isoleucine (He or I): leucine (Leu or L); lysine(Lys or K); methionine (Met or M); phenylalanine (Phe or F); pro line(Pro or P); serine (Ser or S); threonine (Thr or T); tryptophan (Trp orW); tyrosine (Tyr or Y); and valine (Val or V), although modified,synthetic, or rare amino acids may be used as desired. Generally, aminoacids can be grouped as having a nonpolar side chain (e.g., Ala, Cys,He, Leu, Met, Phe, Pro, Val); a negatively charged side chain (e.g.,Asp, Glu); a positively charged sidechain (e.g., Arg, His, Lys); or anuncharged polar side chain (e.g., Asn, Cys, Gin, Gly, His, Met, Phe,Ser, Thr, Trp, and Tyr).

Amino acid modifications include, for example, deletions from, and/orinsertions into, and/or substitutions of, residues within the amino acidsequences of the antibody constructs. Any combination of deletion,insertion, and substitution is made to arrive at the final construct,provided that the final construct possesses the desired characteristics.The amino acid changes also may alter post-translational processes ofthe antibody constructs, such as changing the number or position ofglycosylation sites.

For example, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, or 6 amino acids may be inserted or deletedin each of the CDRs (of course, dependent on their length), while 1, 2,3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, or 25amino acids may be inserted or deleted in each of the FRs. Preferably,amino acid sequence insertions include amino- and/or carboxyl-terminalfusions ranging in length from 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9 or 10 residuesto polypeptides containing a hundred or more residues, as well asintra-sequence insertions of single or multiple amino acid residues. Aninsertional variant of the antibody construct of the invention includesthe fusion to the N-terminus or to the C-terminus of the antibodyconstruct of an enzyme or the fusion to a polypeptide which increasesthe serum half-life of the antibody construct.

The sites of greatest interest for substitutional mutagenesis includethe CDRs of the heavy and/or light chain, in particular thehypervariable regions, but FR alterations in the heavy and/or lightchain are also contemplated. The substitutions are preferablyconservative substitutions as described herein. Preferably, 1, 2, 3, 4,5, 6, 7, 8, 9, or 10 amino acids may be substituted in a CDR, while 1,2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, or25 amino acids may be substituted in the framework regions (FRs),depending on the length of the CDR or FR. For example, if a CDR sequenceencompasses 6 amino acids, it is envisaged that one, two or three ofthese amino acids are substituted. Similarly, if a CDR sequenceencompasses 15 amino acids it is envisaged that one, two, three, four,five or six of these amino acids are substituted.

A useful method for identification of certain residues or regions of theantibody constructs that are preferred locations for mutagenesis iscalled “alanine scanning mutagenesis” as described by Cunningham andWells in Science, 244: 1081-1085 (1989). Here, a residue or group oftarget residues within the antibody construct is/are identified (e.g.charged residues such as arg, asp, his, lys, and glu) and replaced by aneutral or negatively charged amino acid (most preferably alanine orpolyalanine) to affect the interaction of the amino acids with theepitope.

Those amino acid locations demonstrating functional sensitivity to thesubstitutions are then refined by introducing further or other variantsat, or for, the sites of substitution. Thus, while the site or regionfor introducing an amino acid sequence variation is predetermined, thenature of the mutation per se needs not to be predetermined. Forexample, to analyze or optimize the performance of a mutation at a givensite, alanine scanning or random mutagenesis may be conducted at atarget codon or region, and the expressed antibody construct variantsare screened for the optimal combination of desired activity. Techniquesfor making substitution mutations at predetermined sites in the DNAhaving a known sequence are well known, for example, M13 primermutagenesis and PCR mutagenesis. Screening of the mutants is done usingassays of antigen binding activities, such as DLL3 or CD3 binding.

Generally, if amino acids are substituted in one or more or all of theCDRs of the heavy and/or light chain, it is preferred that thethen-obtained “substituted” sequence is at least 60% or 65%, morepreferably 70% or 75%, even more preferably 80% or 85%, and particularlypreferably 90% or 95% identical to the “original” CDR sequence. Thismeans that it is dependent of the length of the CDR to which degree itis identical to the “substituted” sequence. For example, a CDR having 5amino acids is preferably 80% identical to its substituted sequence inorder to have at least one amino acid substituted. Accordingly, the CDRsof the antibody construct may have different degrees of identity totheir substituted sequences, e.g., CDRL1 may have 80%, while CDRL3 mayhave 90%.

Preferred substitutions (or replacements) are conservativesubstitutions. However, any substitution (including non-conservativesubstitution or one or more from the “exemplary substitutions” listed inTable 1, below) is envisaged as long as the antibody construct retainsits capability to bind to DLL3 via the first binding domain and to CD3or CD3 epsilon via the second binding domain and/or its CDRs have anidentity to the then substituted sequence (at least 60% or 65%, morepreferably 70% or 75%, even more preferably 80% or 85%, and particularlypreferably 90% or 95% identical to the “original” CDR sequence).

Conservative substitutions are shown in Table 1 under the heading of“preferred substitutions”. If such substitutions result in a change inbiological activity, then more substantial changes, denominated“exemplary substitutions” in Table 1, or as further described below inreference to amino acid classes, may be introduced and the productsscreened for a desired characteristic.

Substantial modifications in the biological properties of the antibodyconstruct of the present invention are accomplished by selectingsubstitutions that differ significantly in their effect on maintaining(a) the structure of the polypeptide backbone in the area of thesubstitution, for example, as a sheet or helical conformation, (b) thecharge or hydrophobicity of the molecule at the target site, or (c) thebulk of the side chain. Naturally occurring residues are divided intogroups based on common side-chain properties: (1) hydrophobic:norleucine, met, ala, val, leu, ile; (2) neutral hydrophilic: cys, ser,thr; (3) acidic: asp, glu; (4) basic: asn, gin, his, lys, arg; (5)residues that influence chain orientation: gly, pro; and (6) aromatic:trp, tyr, phe.

Non-conservative substitutions will entail exchanging a member of one ofthese classes for another class. Any cysteine residue not involved inmaintaining the proper conformation of the antibody construct may besubstituted, generally with serine, to improve the oxidative stabilityof the molecule and prevent aberrant crosslinking. Conversely, cysteinebond(s) may be added to the antibody to improve its stability(particularly where the antibody is an antibody fragment such as an Fvfragment).

For amino acid sequences, sequence identity and/or similarity isdetermined by using standard techniques known in the art, including, butnot limited to, the local sequence identity algorithm of Smith andWaterman, 1981, Adv. Appl. Math. 2:482, the sequence identity alignmentalgorithm of Needleman and Wunsch, 1970, J. Mol. Biol. 48:443, thesearch for similarity method of Pearson and Lipman, 1988, Proc. Nat.Acad. Sci. U.S.A. 85:2444, computerized implementations of thesealgorithms (GAP, BESTFIT, FASTA, and TFASTA in the Wisconsin GeneticsSoftware Package, Genetics Computer Group, 575 Science Drive, Madison,Wis.), the Best Fit sequence program described by Devereux et al., 1984,Nucl. Acid Res. 12:387-395, preferably using the default settings, or byinspection. Preferably, percent identity is calculated by FastDB basedupon the following parameters: mismatch penalty of 1; gap penalty of 1;gap size penalty of 0.33; and joining penalty of 30, “Current Methods inSequence Comparison and Analysis,” Macromolecule Sequencing andSynthesis, Selected Methods and Applications, pp 127-149 (1988), Alan R.Liss, Inc.

An example of a useful algorithm is PILEUP. PILEUP creates a multiplesequence alignment from a group of related sequences using progressive,pairwise alignments. It can also plot a tree showing the clusteringrelationships used to create the alignment. PILEUP uses a simplificationof the progressive alignment method of Feng & Doolittle, 1987, J. Mol.Evol. 35:351-360; the method is similar to that described by Higgins andSharp, 1989, CABIOS 5:151-153. Useful PILEUP parameters including adefault gap weight of 3.00, a default gap length weight of 0.10, andweighted end gaps.

Another example of a useful algorithm is the BLAST algorithm, describedin: Altschul et al., 1990, J. Mol. Biol. 215:403-410; Altschul et al.,1997, Nucleic Acids Res. 25:3389-3402; and Karin et al., 1993, Proc.Natl. Acad. Sci. U.S.A. 90:5873-5787. A particularly useful BLASTprogram is the WU-BLAST-2 program which was obtained from Altschul etal., 1996, Methods in Enzymology 266:460-480. WU-BLAST-2 uses severalsearch parameters, most of which are set to the default values. Theadjustable parameters are set with the following values: overlap span=1,overlap fraction=0.125, word threshold (T)=II. The HSP S and HSP S2parameters are dynamic values and are established by the program itselfdepending upon the composition of the particular sequence andcomposition of the particular database against which the sequence ofinterest is being searched; however, the values may be adjusted toincrease sensitivity.

An additional useful algorithm is gapped BLAST as reported by Altschulet al., 1993, Nucl. Acids Res. 25:3389-3402. Gapped BLAST uses BLOSUM-62substitution scores; threshold T parameter set to 9; the two-hit methodto trigger ungapped extensions, charges gap lengths of k a cost of 10+k;Xu set to 16, and Xg set to 40 for database search stage and to 67 forthe output stage of the algorithms. Gapped alignments are triggered by ascore corresponding to about 22 bits.

Generally, the amino acid homology, similarity, or identity betweenindividual variant CDRs are at least 60% to the sequences depictedherein, and more typically with preferably increasing homologies oridentities of at least 65% or 70%, more preferably at least 75% or 80%,even more preferably at least 85%, 90%, 91%, 92%, 93%, 94%, 95%, 96%,97%, 98%, 99%, and almost 100%. In a similar manner, “percent (%)nucleic acid sequence identity” with respect to the nucleic acidsequence of the binding proteins identified herein is defined as thepercentage of nucleotide residues in a candidate sequence that areidentical with the nucleotide residues in the coding sequence of theantibody construct. A specific method utilizes the BLASTN module ofWU-BLAST-2 set to the default parameters, with overlap span and overlapfraction set to 1 and 0.125, respectively.

Generally, the nucleic acid sequence homology, similarity, or identitybetween the nucleotide sequences encoding individual variant CDRs andthe nucleotide sequences depicted herein are at least 60%, and moretypically with preferably increasing homologies or identities of atleast 65%, 70%, 75%, 80%, 81%, 82%, 83%, 84%, 85%, 86%, 87%, 88%, 89%,90%, 91%, 92%, 93%, 94%, 95%, 96%, 97%, 98%, or 99%, and almost 100%.Thus, a “variant CDR” is one with the specified homology, similarity, oridentity to the parent CDR of the invention, and shares biologicalfunction, including, but not limited to, at least 60%, 65%, 70%, 75%,80%, 81%, 82%, 83%, 84%, 85%, 86%, 87%, 88%, 89%, 90%, 91%, 92%, 93%,94%, 95%, 96%, 97%, 98%, or 99% of the specificity and/or activity ofthe parent CDR.

In one embodiment, the percentage of identity to human germline of theantibody constructs according to the invention is ≥70% or ≥75%, morepreferably ≥80% or ≥85%, even more preferably ≥90%, and most preferably≥91%, ≥92%, ≥93%, ≥94%, ≥95% or even ≥96%. See Example 7. Identity tohuman antibody germline gene products is thought to be an importantfeature to reduce the risk of therapeutic proteins to elicit an immuneresponse against the drug in the patient during treatment. Hwang & Foote(“lImmunogenicity of engineered antibodies”; Methods 36 (2005) 3-10)demonstrate that the reduction of non-human portions of drug antibodyconstructs leads to a decrease of risk to induce anti-drug antibodies inthe patients during treatment. By comparing an exhaustive number ofclinically evaluated antibody drugs and the respective immunogenicitydata, the trend is shown that humanization of the V-regions ofantibodies makes the protein less immunogenic (average 5.1% of patients)than antibodies carrying unaltered non-human V regions (average 23.59%of patients). A higher degree of identity to human sequences is hencedesirable for V-region based protein therapeutics in the form ofantibody constructs. For this purpose of determining the germlineidentity, the V-regions of VL can be aligned with the amino acidsequences of human germline V segments and J segments (httpcolon-slash-slash vbase.mrc-cpe.cam.ac.uk/) using Vector NTI softwareand the amino acid sequence calculated by dividing the identical aminoacid residues by the total number of amino acid residues of the VL inpercent. The same can be for the VH segments (http colon-slash-slashvbase.mrc-cpc.cam.ac.uk/) with the exception that the VH CDR3 may beexcluded due to its high diversity and a lack of existing human germlineVH CDR3 alignment partners. Recombinant techniques can then be used toincrease sequence identity to human antibody germline genes.

In a further embodiment, the bispecific antibody constructs of thepresent invention exhibit high monomer yields under standard researchscale conditions, e.g., in a standard two-step purification process.Preferably the monomer yield of the antibody constructs according to theinvention is ≥0.25 mg/L supernatant, more preferably ≥0.5 mg/L, evenmore preferably ≥1 mg/L, and most preferably ≥3 mg/L supernatant.

Likewise, the yield of the dimeric antibody construct isoforms and hencethe monomer percentage (i.e., monomer: (monomer+dimer)) of the antibodyconstructs can be determined. The productivity of monomeric and dimericantibody constructs and the calculated monomer percentage can e.g. beobtained in the SEC purification step of culture supernatant fromstandardized research-scale production in roller bottles. In oneembodiment, the monomer percentage of the antibody constructs is ≥80%,more preferably ≥85%, even more preferably ≥90%, and most preferably≥95%.

In one embodiment, the antibody constructs have a preferred plasmastability (ratio of EC50 with plasma to EC50 w/o plasma) of ≤5 or ≤4,more preferably ≤3.5 or ≤3, even more preferably ≤2.5 or ≤2, and mostpreferably ≤1.5 or ≤1. The plasma stability of an antibody construct canbe tested by incubation of the construct in human plasma at 37° C. for24 hours followed by EC50 determination in a 51-chromium releasecytotoxicity assay. The effector cells in the cytotoxicity assay can bestimulated enriched human CD8 positive T cells. Target cells can e.g. beCHO cells transfected with human DLL3. The effector to target cell (E:T)ratio can be chosen as 10:1. The human plasma pool used for this purposeis derived from the blood of healthy donors collected by EDTA coatedsyringes. Cellular components are removed by centrifugation and theupper plasma phase is collected and subsequently pooled. As control,antibody constructs are diluted immediately prior to the cytotoxicityassay in RPMI-1640 medium. The plasma stability is calculated as ratioof EC50 (after plasma incubation) to EC50 (control). See Example 11.

It is furthermore preferred that the monomer to dimer conversion ofantibody constructs of the invention is low. The conversion can bemeasured under different conditions and analyzed by high performancesize exclusion chromatography. See Example 9. For example, incubation ofthe monomeric isoforms of the antibody constructs can be carried out for7 days at 37° C. and concentrations of e.g. 100 μg/ml or 250 μg/ml in anincubator. Under these conditions, it is preferred that the antibodyconstructs of the invention show a dimer percentage that is ≤5%, morepreferably ≤4%, even more preferably ≤3%, even more preferably ≤2.5%,even more preferably ≤2%, even more preferably ≤1.5%, and mostpreferably ≤1% or ≤0.5% or even 0%.

It is also preferred that the bispecific antibody constructs of thepresent invention present with very low dimer conversion after a numberof freeze/thaw cycles. For example, the antibody construct monomer isadjusted to a concentration of 250 μg/ml e.g. in generic formulationbuffer and subjected to three freeze/thaw cycles (freezing at −80° C.for 30 min followed by thawing for 30 min at room temperature), followedby high performance SEC to determine the percentage of initiallymonomeric antibody construct, which had been converted into dimericantibody construct. Preferably the dimer percentages of the bispecificantibody constructs are ≤5%, more preferably ≤4%, even more preferably≤3%, even more preferably ≤2.5%, even more preferably ≤2%, even morepreferably ≤1.5%, and most preferably ≤1% or even 50.5%, for exampleafter three freeze/thaw cycles.

The bispecific antibody constructs of the present invention preferablyshow a favorable thermostability with aggregation temperatures ≥45° C.or ≥50° C., more preferably ≥52° C. or ≥54° C., even more preferably≥56° C. or ≥57° C., and most preferably ≥58° C. or ≥59° C. Thethermostability parameter can be determined in terms of antibodyaggregation temperature as follows: Antibody solution at a concentration250 μg/ml is transferred into a single use cuvette and placed in aDynamic Light Scattering (DLS) device. The sample is heated from 40° C.to 70° C. at a heating rate of 0.5° C./min with constant acquisition ofthe measured radius. Increase of radius indicating melting of theprotein and aggregation is used to calculate the aggregation temperatureof the antibody. See Example 10.

Alternatively, temperature melting curves can be determined byDifferential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC) to determine intrinsicbiophysical protein stabilities of the antibody constructs. Theseexperiments are performed using a MicroCal LLC (Northampton, Mass.,U.S.A) VP-DSC device. The energy uptake of a sample containing anantibody construct is recorded from 20° C. to 90° C. compared to asample containing only the formulation buffer. The antibody constructsare adjusted to a final concentration of 250 μg/ml e.g. in SEC runningbuffer. For recording of the respective melting curve, the overallsample temperature is increased stepwise. At each temperature T energyuptake of the sample and the formulation buffer reference is recorded.The difference in energy uptake Cp (kcal/mole/° C.) of the sample minusthe reference is plotted against the respective temperature. The meltingtemperature is defined as the temperature at the first maximum of energyuptake.

It is furthermore envisaged that the DLL3×CD3 bispecific antibodyconstructs of the invention do not cross-react with (i.e., do notessentially bind to) the human DLL3 paralogues DLL1 and/or DLL4.Furthermore, it is envisaged that the DLL3×CD3 bispecific antibodyconstructs of the invention do not cross-react with (i.e., do notessentially bind to) the macaque/cyno DLL3 paralogues DLL1 and/or DLL4.See Example 6.

The DLL3×CD3 bispecific antibody constructs of the invention are alsoenvisaged to have a turbidity (as measured by OD340 after concentrationof purified monomeric antibody construct to 2.5 mg/ml and over nightincubation) of ≤0.2, preferably of ≤0.15, more preferably of ≤0.12, evenmore preferably of ≤0.1, and most preferably of ≤0.08. See Example 12.

The DLL3×CD3 bispecific antibody constructs of the invention are alsoenvisaged to not be internalized or to not undergo significantinternalization by the target cell. The rate of internalization can beassayed e.g. as described in Example 16. Preferably, the internalizationrate (e.g. measured as a decrease in cytotoxicity) is ≤20% after a 2hour (pre-)incubation of the antibody construct with the target cell,more preferably ≤15%, even more preferably ≤10%, and most preferably≤5%.

It is furthermore envisaged that shed or soluble DLL3 does notsignificantly impair the efficacy or biologic activity of the DLL3×CD3bispecific antibody constructs of the invention. This can be measurede.g. in a cytotoxicity assay where soluble DLL3 is added at increasingconcentrations to the assay, e.g. at 0 nM-0.3 nM-0.7 nM-1 nM-3 nM-7nM-12 nM. The EC50 value of the tested antibody construct should not besignificantly increased in the presence of soluble DLL3. See Example 17.

In a further embodiment the antibody construct according to theinvention is stable at acidic pH. The more tolerant the antibodyconstruct behaves at unphysiologic pH such as pH 5.5 (a pH which isrequired to run e.g. a cation exchange chromatography), the higher isthe recovery of the antibody construct eluted from an ion exchangecolumn relative to the total amount of loaded protein. Recovery of theantibody construct from an ion (e.g., cation) exchange column at pH 5.5is preferably ≥30%, more preferably ≥40%, more preferably ≥50%, evenmore preferably ≥60%, even more preferably ≥70%, even more preferably≥80%, even more preferably ≥90%, even more preferably ≥95%, and mostpreferably ≥99%. See Example 13.

It is furthermore envisaged that the bispecific antibody constructs ofthe present invention exhibit therapeutic efficacy or anti-tumoractivity. This can e.g. be assessed in a study as disclosed in thefollowing example of an advanced stage human tumor xenograft model:

On day 1 of the study, 5×10⁶ cells of a human DLL3 positive cancer cellline (e.g. SHP-77) are subcutaneously injected in the right dorsal flankof female NOD/SCID mice. When the mean tumor volume reaches about 100mm³, in vitro expanded human CD3 positive T cells are transplanted intothe mice by injection of about 2×10⁷ cells into the peritoneal cavity ofthe animals. Mice of vehicle control group 1 do not receive effectorcells and are used as an untransplanted control for comparison withvehicle control group 2 (receiving effector cells) to monitor the impactof T cells alone on tumor growth. The antibody treatment starts when themean tumor volume reaches about 200 mm³. The mean tumor size of eachtreatment group on the day of treatment start should not bestatistically different from any other group (analysis of variance).Mice are treated with 0.5 mg/kg/day of a DLL3×CD3 bispecifc antibodyconstruct by intravenous bolus injection for about 15 to 20 days. Tumorsare measured by caliper during the study and progress evaluated byintergroup comparison of tumor volumes (TV). The tumor growth inhibitionT/C [%] is determined by calculating TV as T/C %=100× (median TV ofanalyzed group)/(median TV of control group 2).

The skilled person knows how to modify or adapt certain parameters ofthis study, such as the number of injected tumor cells, the site ofinjection, the number of transplanted human T cells, the amount ofbispecific antibody constructs to be administered, and the timelines,while still arriving at a meaningful and reproducible result.Preferably, the tumor growth inhibition T/C [%] is ≤70 or ≤60, morepreferably ≤50 or ≤40, even more preferably ≤30 or ≤20 and mostpreferably ≤10 or ≤5 or even ≤2.5.

The invention further provides a polynucleotide/nucleic acid moleculeencoding an antibody construct of the invention.

A polynucleotide is a biopolymer composed of 13 or more nucleotidemonomers covalently bonded in a chain. DNA (such as cDNA) and RNA (suchas mRNA) are examples of polynucleotides with distinct biologicalfunction. Nucleotides are organic molecules that serve as the monomersor subunits of nucleic acid molecules like DNA or RNA. The nucleic acidmolecule or polynucleotide can be double stranded and single stranded,linear and circular. It is preferably comprised in a vector which ispreferably comprised in a host cell. Said host cell is, e.g. aftertransformation or transfection with the vector or the polynucleotide ofthe invention, capable of expressing the antibody construct. For thatpurpose the polynucleotide or nucleic acid molecule is operativelylinked with control sequences.

The genetic code is the set of rules by which information encoded withingenetic material (nucleic acids) is translated into proteins. Biologicaldecoding in living cells is accomplished by the ribosome which linksamino acids in an order specified by mRNA, using tRNA molecules to carryamino acids and to read the mRNA three nucleotides at a time. The codedefines how sequences of these nucleotide triplets, called codons,specify which amino acid will be added next during protein synthesis.With some exceptions, a three-nucleotide codon in a nucleic acidsequence specifies a single amino acid. Because the vast majority ofgenes are encoded with exactly the same code, this particular code isoften referred to as the canonical or standard genetic code. While thegenetic code determines the protein sequence for a given coding region,other genomic regions can influence when and where these proteins areproduced.

Furthermore, the invention provides a vector comprising apolynucleotide/nucleic acid molecule of the invention.

A vector is a nucleic acid molecule used as a vehicle to transfer(foreign) genetic material into a cell. The term “vector”encompasses—but is not restricted to—plasmids, viruses, cosmids andartificial chromosomes. In general, engineered vectors comprise anorigin of replication, a multicloning site and a selectable marker. Thevector itself is generally a nucleotide sequence, commonly a DNAsequence, that comprises an insert (transgene) and a larger sequencethat serves as the “backbone” of the vector. Modern vectors mayencompass additional features besides the transgene insert and abackbone: promoter, genetic marker, antibiotic resistance, reportergene, targeting sequence, protein purification tag. Vectors calledexpression vectors (expression constructs) specifically are for theexpression of the transgene in the target cell, and generally havecontrol sequences.

The term “control sequences” refers to DNA sequences necessary for theexpression of an operably linked coding sequence in a particular hostorganism. The control sequences that are suitable for prokaryotes, forexample, include a promoter, optionally an operator sequence, and aribosome binding site. Eukaryotic cells are known to utilize promoters,polyadenylation signals, and enhancers.

A nucleic acid is “operably linked” when it is placed into a functionalrelationship with another nucleic acid sequence. For example, DNA for apresequence or secretory leader is operably linked to DNA for apolypeptide if it is expressed as a preprotein that participates in thesecretion of the polypeptide; a promoter or enhancer is operably linkedto a coding sequence if it affects the transcription of the sequence; ora ribosome binding site is operably linked to a coding sequence if it ispositioned so as to facilitate translation. Generally, “operably linked”means that the DNA sequences being linked are contiguous, and, in thecase of a secretory leader, contiguous and in reading phase. However,enhancers do not have to be contiguous. Linking is accomplished byligation at convenient restriction sites. If such sites do not exist,the synthetic oligonucleotide adaptors or linkers are used in accordancewith conventional practice.

“Transfection” is the process of deliberately introducing nucleic acidmolecules or polynucleotides (including vectors) into target cells. Theterm is mostly used for non-viral methods in eukaryotic cells.Transduction is often used to describe virus-mediated transfer ofnucleic acid molecules or polynucleotides. Transfection of animal cellstypically involves opening transient pores or “holes” in the cellmembrane, to allow the uptake of material. Transfection can be carriedout using calcium phosphate, by electroporation, by cell squeezing or bymixing a cationic lipid with the material to produce liposomes, whichfuse with the cell membrane and deposit their cargo inside.

The term “transformation” is used to describe non-viral transfer ofnucleic acid molecules or polynucleotides (including vectors) intobacteria, and also into non-animal eukaryotic cells, including plantcells. Transformation is hence the genetic alteration of a bacterial ornon-animal eukaryotic cell resulting from the direct uptake through thecell membrane(s) from its surroundings and subsequent incorporation ofexogenous genetic material (nucleic acid molecules). Transformation canbe effected by artificial means. For transformation to happen, cells orbacteria must be in a state of competence, which might occur as atime-limited response to environmental conditions such as starvation andcell density.

Moreover, the invention provides a host cell transformed or transfectedwith the polynucleotide/nucleic acid molecule or with the vector of theinvention.

As used herein, the terms “host cell” or “recipient cell” are intendedto include any individual cell or cell culture that can be or has/havebeen recipients of vectors, exogenous nucleic acid molecules, andpolynucleotides encoding the antibody construct of the presentinvention; and/or recipients of the antibody construct itself. Theintroduction of the respective material into the cell is carried out byway of transformation, transfection and the like. The term “host cell”is also intended to include progeny or potential progeny of a singlecell. Because certain modifications may occur in succeeding generationsdue to either natural, accidental, or deliberate mutation or due toenvironmental influences, such progeny may not, in fact, be completelyidentical (in morphology or in genomic or total DNA complement) to theparent cell, but is still included within the scope of the term as usedherein. Suitable host cells include prokaryotic or eukaryotic cells, andalso include but are not limited to bacteria, yeast cells, fungi cells,plant cells, and animal cells such as insect cells and mammalian cells,e.g., murine, rat, macaque or human.

The antibody construct of the invention can be produced in bacteria.After expression, the antibody construct of the invention is isolatedfrom the E. coli cell paste in a soluble fraction and can be purifiedthrough, e.g., affinity chromatography and/or size exclusion. Finalpurification can be carried out similar to the process for purifyingantibody expressed e.g., in CHO cells.

In addition to prokaryotes, eukaryotic microbes such as filamentousfungi or yeast are suitable cloning or expression hosts for the antibodyconstruct of the invention. Saccharomyces cerevisiae, or common baker'syeast, is the most commonly used among lower eukaryotic hostmicroorganisms. However, a number of other genera, species, and strainsare commonly available and useful herein, such as Schizosaccharomycespombe, Kluyveromyces hosts such as K. lactis, K. fragilis (ATCC 12424),K. bulgaricus (ATCC 16045), K. wickeramii (ATCC 24178), K. waltii (ATCC56500), K. drosophilarum (ATCC 36906), K. thermotolerans, and K.marxianus; yarrowia (EP 402 226); Pichia pastoris (EP 183 070); Candida;Trichoderma reesia (EP 244 234); Neurospora crassa; Schwanniomyces suchas Schwanniomyces occidentalis; and filamentous fungi such asNeurospora, Penicillium, Tolypocladium, and Aspergillus hosts such as A.nidulans and A. niger.

Suitable host cells for the expression of glycosylated antibodyconstruct of the invention are derived from multicellular organisms.Examples of invertebrate cells include plant and insect cells. Numerousbaculoviral strains and variants and corresponding permissive insecthost cells from hosts such as Spodoptera frugiperda (caterpillar), Aedesaegypti (mosquito), Aedes albopictus (mosquito), Drosophila melanogaster(fruit fly), and Bombyx mori have been identified. A variety of viralstrains for transfection are publicly available, e.g., the L-1 variantof Autographa californica NPV and the Bm-5 strain of Bombyx mori NPV,and such viruses may be used as the virus herein according to thepresent invention, particularly for transfection of Spodopterafrugiperda cells.

Plant cell cultures of cotton, corn, potato, soybean, petunia, tomato,Arabidopsis and tobacco can also be used as hosts. Cloning andexpression vectors useful in the production of proteins in plant cellculture are known to those of skill in the art. See e.g. Hiatt et al.,Nature (1989) 342: 76-78, Owen et al. (1992) Bio/Technology 10: 790-794,Artsaenko et al. (1995) The Plant J 8: 745-750, and Fecker et al. (1996)Plant Mol Biol 32: 979-986.

However, interest has been greatest in vertebrate cells, and propagationof vertebrate cells in culture (tissue culture) has become a routineprocedure. Examples of useful mammalian host cell lines are monkeykidney CV1 line transformed by SV40 (COS-7, ATCC CRL 1651); humanembryonic kidney line (293 or 293 cells subcloned for growth insuspension culture, Graham et al., J. Gen Virol. 36: 59 (1977)); babyhamster kidney cells (BHK, ATCC CCL 10); Chinese hamster ovarycells/-DHFR (CHO, Urlaub et al., Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 77: 4216(1980)); mouse sertoli cells (TM4, Mather, Biol. Reprod. 23: 243-251(1980)); monkey kidney cells (CVI ATCC CCL 70); African green monkeykidney cells (VERO-76, ATCC CRL1587); human cervical carcinoma cells(HELA, ATCC CCL 2); canine kidney cells (MDCK, ATCC CCL 34); buffalo ratliver cells (BRL 3A, ATCC CRL 1442); human lung cells (W138, ATCC CCL75); human liver cells (Hep G2,1413 8065); mouse mammary tumor (MMT060562, ATCC CCL5 1); TRI cells (Mather et al., Annals N. Y Acad. Sci.(1982) 383: 44-68); MRC 5 cells; FS4 cells; and a human hepatoma line(Hep G2).

In a further embodiment the invention provides a process for theproduction of an antibody construct of the invention, said processcomprising culturing a host cell of the invention under conditionsallowing the expression of the antibody construct of the invention andrecovering the produced antibody construct from the culture.

As used herein, the term “culturing” refers to the in vitro maintenance,differentiation, growth, proliferation and/or propagation of cells undersuitable conditions in a medium. The term “expression” includes any stepinvolved in the production of an antibody construct of the inventionincluding, but not limited to, transcription, post-transcriptionalmodification, translation, post-translational modification, andsecretion.

When using recombinant techniques, the antibody construct can beproduced intracellularly, in the periplasmic space, or directly secretedinto the medium. If the antibody construct is produced intracellularly,as a first step, the particulate debris, either host cells or lysedfragments, are removed, for example, by centrifugation orultrafiltration. Carter et al., Bio/Technology 10: 163-167 (1992)describe a procedure for isolating antibodies which are secreted to theperiplasmic space of E. coli. Briefly, cell paste is thawed in thepresence of sodium acetate (pH 3.5), EDTA, andphenylmethylsulfonylfluoride (PMSF) over about 30 min. Cell debris canbe removed by centrifugation. Where the antibody is secreted into themedium, supernatants from such expression systems are generally firstconcentrated using a commercially available protein concentrationfilter, for example, an Amicon or Millipore Pellicon ultrafiltrationunit. A protease inhibitor such as PMSF may be included in any of theforegoing steps to inhibit proteolysis and antibiotics may be includedto prevent the growth of adventitious contaminants.

The antibody construct of the invention prepared from the host cells canbe recovered or purified using, for example, hydroxylapatitechromatography, gel electrophoresis, dialysis, and affinitychromatography. Other techniques for protein purification such asfractionation on an ion-exchange column, ethanol precipitation, ReversePhase HPLC, chromatography on silica, chromatography on heparinSEPHAROSE™, chromatography on an anion or cation exchange resin (such asa polyaspartic acid column), chromato-focusing, SDS-PAGE, and ammoniumsulfate precipitation are also available depending on the antibody to berecovered. Where the antibody construct of the invention comprises a CH3domain, the Bakerbond ABX resin (J. T. Baker, Phillipsburg, N.J.) isuseful for purification.

Affinity chromatography is a preferred purification technique. Thematrix to which the affinity ligand is attached is most often agarose,but other matrices are available. Mechanically stable matrices such ascontrolled pore glass or poly (styrenedivinyl) benzene allow for fasterflow rates and shorter processing times than can be achieved withagarose.

Moreover, the invention provides a pharmaceutical composition comprisingan antibody construct of the invention or an antibody construct producedaccording to the process of the invention.

As used herein, the term “pharmaceutical composition” relates to acomposition which is suitable for administration to a patient,preferably a human patient. The particularly preferred pharmaceuticalcomposition of this invention comprises one or a plurality of theantibody construct(s) of the invention, preferably in a therapeuticallyeffective amount. Preferably, the pharmaceutical composition furthercomprises suitable formulations of one or more (pharmaceuticallyeffective) carriers, stabilizers, excipients, diluents, solubilizers,surfactants, emulsifiers, preservatives and/or adjuvants. Acceptableconstituents of the composition are preferably nontoxic to recipients atthe dosages and concentrations employed.

It is alsoenvisaged that the antibody construct of the present invention isapplied in a co-therapy, i.e., in combination with another anti-cancermedicament.

In certain embodiments, the optimal pharmaceutical composition will bedetermined by one skilled in the art depending upon, for example, theintended route of administration, delivery format and desired dosage.See, for example, REMINGTON'S PHARMACEUTICAL SCIENCES, supra. In certainembodiments, such compositions may influence the physical state,stability, rate of in vivo release and rate of in vivo clearance of theantibody construct of the invention. In certain embodiments, the primaryvehicle or carrier in a pharmaceutical composition may be either aqueousor non-aqueous in nature. For example, a suitable vehicle or carrier maybe water for injection, physiological saline solution or artificialcerebrospinal fluid, possibly supplemented with other materials commonin compositions for parenteral administration. Neutral buffered salineor saline mixed with serum albumin are further exemplary vehicles. Incertain embodiments, the antibody construct of the inventioncompositions may be prepared for storage by mixing the selectedcomposition having the desired degree of purity with optionalformulation agents (REMINGTON'S PHARMACEUTICAL SCIENCES, supra) in theform of a lyophilized cake or an aqueous solution. Further, in certainembodiments, the antibody construct of the invention may be formulatedas a lyophilizate using appropriate excipients such as sucrose.

When parenteral administration is contemplated, the therapeuticcompositions for use in this invention may be provided in the form of apyrogen-free, parenterally acceptable aqueous solution comprising thedesired antibody construct of the invention in a pharmaceuticallyacceptable vehicle. A particularly suitable vehicle for parenteralinjection is sterile distilled water in which the antibody construct ofthe invention is formulated as a sterile, isotonic solution, properlypreserved. In certain embodiments, the preparation can involve theformulation of the desired molecule with an agent, such as injectablemicrospheres, bio-erodible particles, polymeric compounds (such aspolylactic acid or polyglycolic acid), beads or liposomes, that mayprovide controlled or sustained release of the product which can bedelivered via depot injection. In certain embodiments, hyaluronic acidmay also be used, having the effect of promoting sustained duration inthe circulation. In certain embodiments, implantable drug deliverydevices may be used to introduce the desired antibody construct.

Additional pharmaceutical compositions will be evident to those skilledin the art, including formulations involving the antibody construct ofthe invention in sustained- or controlled-delivery/release formulations.Techniques for formulating a variety of other sustained- orcontrolled-delivery means, such as liposome carriers, bio-erodiblemicroparticles or porous beads and depot injections, are also known tothose skilled in the art. See, for example, International PatentApplication No. PCT/US93/00829, which describes controlled release ofporous polymeric microparticles for delivery of pharmaceuticalcompositions. Sustained-release preparations may include semipermeablepolymer matrices in the form of shaped articles, e.g., films, ormicrocapsules. Sustained release matrices may include polyesters,hydrogels, polylactides (as disclosed in U.S. Pat. No. 3,773,919 andEuropean Patent Application Publication No. EP 058481), copolymers ofL-glutamic acid and gamma ethyl-L-glutamate (Sidman et al., 1983,Biopolymers 2:547-556), poly (2-hydroxyethyl-methacrylate) (Langer etal., 1981, J. Biomed. Mater. Res. 15:167-277 and Langer, 1982, Chem.Tech. 12:98-105), ethylene vinyl acetate (Langer et al., 1981, supra) orpoly-D(−)-3-hydroxybutyric acid (European Patent Application PublicationNo. EP 133,988). Sustained release compositions may also includeliposomes that can be prepared by any of several methods known in theart. See, e.g., Eppstein et al., 1985, Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U.S.A.82:3688-3692; European Patent Application Publication Nos. EP 036,676;EP 088,046 and EP 143,949.

The antibody construct may also be entrapped in microcapsules prepared,for example, by coacervation techniques or by interfacial polymerization(for example, hydroxymethylcellulose or gelatine-microcapsules and poly(methylmethacylate) microcapsules, respectively), in colloidal drugdelivery systems (for example, liposomes, albumin microspheres,microemulsions, nanoparticles and nanocapsules), or in macroemulsions.Such techniques are disclosed in Remington's Pharmaceutical Sciences,16th edition, Oslo, A., Ed., (1980).

Pharmaceutical compositions used for in vivo administration aretypically provided as sterile preparations. Sterilization can beaccomplished by filtration through sterile filtration membranes. Whenthe composition is lyophilized, sterilization using this method may beconducted either prior to or following lyophilization andreconstitution. Compositions for parenteral administration can be storedin lyophilized form or in a solution. Parenteral compositions generallyare placed into a container having a sterile access port, for example,an intravenous solution bag or vial having a stopper pierceable by ahypodermic injection needle.

Another aspect of the invention includes self-buffering antibodyconstruct of the invention formulations, which can be used aspharmaceutical compositions, as described in international patentapplication WO 06138181 A2 (PCT/US2006/022599). A variety of expositionsare available on protein stabilization and formulation materials andmethods useful in this regard, such as Arakawa et al., “Solventinteractions in pharmaceutical formulations,” Pharm Res. 8(3): 285-91(1991); Kendrick et al., “Physical stabilization of proteins in aqueoussolution” in: RATIONAL DESIGN OF STABLE PROTEIN FORMULATIONS: THEORY ANDPRACTICE, Carpenter and Manning, eds. Pharmaceutical Biotechnology. 13:61-84 (2002), and Randolph et al., “Surfactant-protein interactions”,Pharm Biotechnol. 13: 159-75 (2002), see particularly the partspertinent to excipients and processes of the same for self-bufferingprotein formulations in accordance with the current invention,especially as to protein pharmaceutical products and processes forveterinary and/or human medical uses.

Salts may be used in accordance with certain embodiments of theinvention to, for example, adjust the ionic strength and/or theisotonicity of a formulation and/or to improve the solubility and/orphysical stability of a protein or other ingredient of a composition inaccordance with the invention. As is well known, ions can stabilize thenative state of proteins by binding to charged residues on the protein'ssurface and by shielding charged and polar groups in the protein andreducing the strength of their electrostatic interactions, attractive,and repulsive interactions. Ions also can stabilize the denatured stateof a protein by binding to, in particular, the denatured peptidelinkages (—CONH) of the protein. Furthermore, ionic interaction withcharged and polar groups in a protein also can reduce intermolecularelectrostatic interactions and, thereby, prevent or reduce proteinaggregation and insolubility.

Ionic species differ significantly in their effects on proteins. Anumber of categorical rankings of ions and their effects on proteinshave been developed that can be used in formulating pharmaceuticalcompositions in accordance with the invention. One example is theHofmeister series, which ranks ionic and polar non-ionic solutes bytheir effect on the conformational stability of proteins in solution.Stabilizing solutes are referred to as “kosmotropic”. Destabilizingsolutes are referred to as “chaotropic”. Kosmotropes commonly are usedat high concentrations (e.g., ≥1 molar ammonium sulfate) to precipitateproteins from solution (“salting-out”). Chaotropes commonly are used todenture and/or to solubilize proteins (“salting-in”). The relativeeffectiveness of ions to “salt-in” and “salt-out” defines their positionin the Hofmeister series.

Free amino acids can be used in the antibody construct of the inventionformulations in accordance with various embodiments of the invention asbulking agents, stabilizers, and antioxidants, as well as other standarduses. Lysine, proline, serine, and alanine can be used for stabilizingproteins in a formulation. Glycine is useful in lyophilization to ensurecorrect cake structure and properties. Arginine may be useful to inhibitprotein aggregation, in both liquid and lyophilized formulations.Methionine is useful as an antioxidant.

Polyols include sugars, e.g., mannitol, sucrose, and sorbitol andpolyhydric alcohols such as, for instance, glycerol and propyleneglycol, and, for purposes of discussion herein, polyethylene glycol(PEG) and related substances. Polyols are kosmotropic. They are usefulstabilizing agents in both liquid and lyophilized formulations toprotect proteins from physical and chemical degradation processes.Polyols also are useful for adjusting the tonicity of formulations.Among polyols useful in select embodiments of the invention is mannitol,commonly used to ensure structural stability of the cake in lyophilizedformulations. It ensures structural stability to the cake. It isgenerally used with a lyoprotectant, e.g., sucrose. Sorbitol and sucroseare among preferred agents for adjusting tonicity and as stabilizers toprotect against freeze-thaw stresses during transport or the preparationof bulks during the manufacturing process. Reducing sugars (whichcontain free aldehyde or ketone groups), such as glucose and lactose,can glycate surface lysine and arginine residues. Therefore, theygenerally are not among preferred polyols for use in accordance with theinvention. In addition, sugars that form such reactive species, such assucrose, which is hydrolyzed to fructose and glucose under acidicconditions, and consequently engenders glycation, also is not amongpreferred polyols of the invention in this regard. PEG is useful tostabilize proteins and as a cryoprotectant and can be used in theinvention in this regard.

Embodiments of the antibody construct of the invention formulationsfurther comprise surfactants. Protein molecules may be susceptible toadsorption on surfaces and to denaturation and consequent aggregation atair-liquid, solid-liquid, and liquid-liquid interfaces. These effectsgenerally scale inversely with protein concentration. These deleteriousinteractions generally scale inversely with protein concentration andtypically are exacerbated by physical agitation, such as that generatedduring the shipping and handling of a product. Surfactants routinely areused to prevent, minimize, or reduce surface adsorption. Usefulsurfactants in the invention in this regard include polysorbate 20,polysorbate 80, other fatty acid esters of sorbitan polyethoxylates, andpoloxamer 188. Surfactants also are commonly used to control proteinconformational stability. The use of surfactants in this regard isprotein-specific since, any given surfactant typically will stabilizesome proteins and destabilize others.

Polysorbates are susceptible to oxidative degradation and often, assupplied, contain sufficient quantities of peroxides to cause oxidationof protein residue side-chains, especially methionine. Consequently,polysorbates should be used carefully, and when used, should be employedat their lowest effective concentration. In this regard, polysorbatesexemplify the general rule that excipients should be used in theirlowest effective concentrations.

Embodiments of the antibody construct of the invention formulationsfurther comprise one or more antioxidants. To some extent deleteriousoxidation of proteins can be prevented in pharmaceutical formulations bymaintaining proper levels of ambient oxygen and temperature and byavoiding exposure to light. Antioxidant excipients can be used as wellto prevent oxidative degradation of proteins. Among useful antioxidantsin this regard are reducing agents, oxygen/free-radical scavengers, andchelating agents. Antioxidants for use in therapeutic proteinformulations in accordance with the invention preferably arewater-soluble and maintain their activity throughout the shelf life of aproduct. EDTA is a preferred antioxidant in accordance with theinvention in this regard. Antioxidants can damage proteins. Forinstance, reducing agents, such as glutathione in particular, candisrupt intramolecular disulfide linkages. Thus, antioxidants for use inthe invention are selected to, among other things, eliminate orsufficiently reduce the possibility of themselves damaging proteins inthe formulation.

Formulations in accordance with the invention may include metal ionsthat are protein co-factors and that are necessary to form proteincoordination complexes, such as zinc necessary to form certain insulinsuspensions. Metal ions also can inhibit some processes that degradeproteins. However, metal ions also catalyze physical and chemicalprocesses that degrade proteins. Magnesium ions (10-120 mM) can be usedto inhibit isomerization of aspartic acid to isoaspartic acid. Ca⁺² ions(up to 100 mM) can increase the stability of human deoxyribonuclease.Mg⁺², Mn⁺², and Zn⁺², however, can destabilize rhDNase. Similarly, Ca⁺²and Sr⁺² can stabilize Factor VIII, it can be destabilized by Mg⁺², Mn⁺²and Zn⁺², Cu⁺² and Fe⁺², and its aggregation can be increased by Al⁺³ions.

Embodiments of the antibody construct of the invention formulationsfurther comprise one or more preservatives. Preservatives are necessarywhen developing multi-dose parenteral formulations that involve morethan one extraction from the same container. Their primary function isto inhibit microbial growth and ensure product sterility throughout theshelf-life or term of use of the drug product. Commonly usedpreservatives include benzyl alcohol, phenol and m-cresol. Althoughpreservatives have a long history of use with small-moleculeparenterals, the development of protein formulations that includespreservatives can be challenging. Preservatives almost always have adestabilizing effect (aggregation) on proteins, and this has become amajor factor in limiting their use in multi-dose protein formulations.To date, most protein drugs have been formulated for single-use only.However, when multi-dose formulations are possible, they have the addedadvantage of enabling patient convenience, and increased marketability.A good example is that of human growth hormone (hGH) where thedevelopment of preserved formulations has led to commercialization ofmore convenient, multi-use injection pen presentations. At least foursuch pen devices containing preserved formulations of hGH are currentlyavailable on the market. Norditropin (liquid, Novo Nordisk), Nutropin AQ(liquid, Genentech) & Genotropin (lyophilized—dual chamber cartridge,Pharmacia & Upjohn) contain phenol while Somatrope (Eli Lilly) isformulated with m-cresol. Several aspects need to be considered duringthe formulation and development of preserved dosage forms. The effectivepreservative concentration in the drug product must be optimized. Thisrequires testing a given preservative in the dosage form withconcentration ranges that confer anti-microbial effectiveness withoutcompromising protein stability.

As might be expected, development of liquid formulations containingpreservatives are more challenging than lyophilized formulations.Freeze-dried products can be lyophilized without the preservative andreconstituted with a preservative containing diluent at the time of use.This shortens the time for which a preservative is in contact with theprotein, significantly minimizing the associated stability risks. Withliquid formulations, preservative effectiveness and stability should bemaintained over the entire product shelf-life (about 18 to 24 months).An important point to note is that preservative effectiveness should bedemonstrated in the final formulation containing the active drug and allexcipient components.

The antibody constructs disclosed herein may also be formulated asimmuno-liposomes. A “liposome” is a small vesicle composed of varioustypes of lipids, phospholipids and/or surfactant which is useful fordelivery of a drug to a mammal. The components of the liposome arecommonly arranged in a bilayer formation, similar to the lipidarrangement of biological membranes. Liposomes containing the antibodyconstruct are prepared by methods known in the art, such as described inEpstein et al., Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA, 82: 3688 (1985); Hwang etal., Proc. Natl Acad. Sci. USA, 77: 4030 (1980); U.S. Pat. Nos.4,485,045 and 4,544,545; and WO 97/38731. Liposomes with enhancedcirculation time are disclosed in U.S. Pat. No. 5,013,556. Particularlyuseful liposomes can be generated by the reverse phase evaporationmethod with a lipid composition comprising phosphatidylcholine,cholesterol and PEG-derivatized phosphatidylethanolamine (PEG-PE).Liposomes are extruded through filters of defined pore size to yieldliposomes with the desired diameter. Fab′ fragments of the antibodyconstruct of the present invention can be conjugated to the liposomes asdescribed in Martin et al. J. Biol. Chem. 257: 286-288 (1982) via adisulfide interchange reaction. A chemotherapeutic agent is optionallycontained within the liposome. See Gabizon et al. J. National CancerInst. 81 (19) 1484 (1989).

Once the pharmaceutical composition has been formulated, it may bestored in sterile vials as a solution, suspension, gel, emulsion, solid,crystal, or as a dehydrated or lyophilized powder. Such formulations maybe stored either in a ready-to-use form or in a form (e.g., lyophilized)that is reconstituted prior to administration.

The biological activity of the pharmaceutical composition defined hereincan be determined for instance by cytotoxicity assays, as described inthe following examples, in WO 99/54440 or by Schlereth et al. (CancerImmunol. Immunother. 20 (2005), 1-12). “Efficacy” or “in vivo efficacy”as used herein refers to the response to therapy by the pharmaceuticalcomposition of the invention, using e.g. standardized NCI responsecriteria. The success or in vivo efficacy of the therapy using apharmaceutical composition of the invention refers to the effectivenessof the composition for its intended purpose, i.e. the ability of thecomposition to cause its desired effect, i.e. depletion of pathologiccells, e.g. tumor cells. The in vivo efficacy may be monitored byestablished standard methods for the respective disease entitiesincluding, but not limited to white blood cell counts, differentials,Fluorescence Activated Cell Sorting, bone marrow aspiration. Inaddition, various disease specific clinical chemistry parameters andother established standard methods may be used. Furthermore,computer-aided tomography, X-ray, nuclear magnetic resonance tomography(e.g. for National Cancer Institute-criteria based response assessment[Cheson B D, Horning S J, Coiffier B, Shipp M A, Fisher R I, Connors JM, Lister T A, Vose J, Grillo-Lopez A, Hagenbeek A, Cabanillas F,Klippensten D, Hiddemann W, Castellino R, Harris N L, Armitage J O,Carter W, Hoppe R, Canellos G P. Report of an international workshop tostandardize response criteria for non-Hodgkin's lymphomas. NCI SponsoredInternational Working Group. J Clin Oncol. 1999 April; 17(4):1244]),positron-emission tomography scanning, white blood cell counts,differentials, Fluorescence Activated Cell Sorting, bone marrowaspiration, lymph node biopsies/histologies, and various lymphomaspecific clinical chemistry parameters (e.g. lactate dehydrogenase) andother established standard methods may be used.

Another major challenge in the development of drugs such as thepharmaceutical composition of the invention is the predictablemodulation of pharmacokinetic properties. To this end, a pharmacokineticprofile of the drug candidate, i.e. a profile of the pharmacokineticparameters that affect the ability of a particular drug to treat a givencondition, can be established. Pharmacokinetic parameters of the druginfluencing the ability of a drug for treating a certain disease entityinclude, but are not limited to: half-life, volume of distribution,hepatic first-pass metabolism and the degree of blood serum binding. Theefficacy of a given drug agent can be influenced by each of theparameters mentioned above.

“Half-life” means the time where 50% of an administered drug areeliminated through biological processes, e.g. metabolism, excretion,etc. By “hepatic first-pass metabolism” is meant the propensity of adrug to be metabolized upon first contact with the liver, i.e. duringits first pass through the liver. “Volume of distribution” means thedegree of retention of a drug throughout the various compartments of thebody, like e.g. intracellular and extracellular spaces, tissues andorgans, etc. and the distribution of the drug within these compartments.“Degree of blood serum binding” means the propensity of a drug tointeract with and bind to blood serum proteins, such as albumin, leadingto a reduction or loss of biological activity of the drug.

Pharmacokinetic parameters also include bioavailability, lag time(TIag), Tmax, absorption rates, more onset and/or Cmax for a givenamount of drug administered. “Bioavailability” means the amount of adrug in the blood compartment. “Lag time” means the time delay betweenthe administration of the drug and its detection and measurability inblood or plasma. “Tmax” is the time after which maximal bloodconcentration of the drug is reached, and “Cmax” is the bloodconcentration maximally obtained with a given drug. The time to reach ablood or tissue concentration of the drug which is required for itsbiological effect is influenced by all parameters. Pharmacokineticparameters of bispecific antibody constructs exhibiting cross-speciesspecificity, which may be determined in preclinical animal testing innon-chimpanzee primates as outlined above, are also set forth e.g. inthe publication by Schlereth et al. (Cancer Immunol. Immunother. 20(2005), 1-12).

One embodiment provides the antibody construct of the invention or theantibody construct produced according to the process of the inventionfor use in the prevention, treatment or amelioration of a tumor orcancer disease or of a metastatic cancer disease.

The formulations described herein are useful as pharmaceuticalcompositions in the treatment, amelioration and/or prevention of thepathological medical condition as described herein in a patient in needthereof. The term “treatment” refers to both therapeutic treatment andprophylactic or preventative measures. Treatment includes theapplication or administration of the formulation to the body, anisolated tissue, or cell from a patient who has a disease/disorder, asymptom of a disease/disorder, or a predisposition toward adisease/disorder, with the purpose to cure, heal, alleviate, relieve,alter, remedy, ameliorate, improve, or affect the disease, the symptomof the disease, or the predisposition toward the disease.

The term “amelioration” as used herein refers to any improvement of thedisease state of a patient having a tumor or cancer or a metastaticcancer as specified herein below, by the administration of an antibodyconstruct according to the invention to a subject in need thereof. Suchan improvement may also be seen as a slowing or stopping of the pprogression of the tumor or cancer or metastatic cancer of the patient.The term “prevention” as used herein means the avoidance of theoccurrence or re-occurrence of a patient having a tumor or cancer or ametastatic cancer as specified herein below, by the administration of anantibody construct according to the invention to a subject in needthereof.

The term “disease” refers to any condition that would benefit fromtreatment with the antibody construct or the pharmaceutic compositiondescribed herein. This includes chronic and acute disorders or diseasesincluding those pathological conditions that predispose the mammal tothe disease in question.

A “neoplasm” is is an abnormal growth of tissue, usually but not alwaysforming a mass. When also forming a mass, it is commonly referred to asa “tumor”. Neoplasms or tumors can be benign, potentially malignant(pre-cancerous), or malignant. Malignant neoplasms are commonly calledcancer. They usually invade and destroy the surrounding tissue and mayform metastases, i.e., they spread to other parts, tissues or organs ofthe body. Hence, the term “metatstatic cancer” encompasses metastases toother tissues or organs than the one of the original tumor. Lymphomasand leukemias are lymphoid neoplasms. For the purposes of the presentinvention, they are also encompassed by the terms “tumor” or “cancer”.

In a preferred embodiment of the invention, the tumor or cancer diseaseis selected from the group including, but not limited to, (or consistingof) lung cancer, preferably SCLC, breast, cervical, colon, colorectal,endometrial, head and neck, liver, ovarian, pancreatic, prostate, skin,gastric, testis, thyroid, adrenal, renal, bladder, uterine, esophageal,urothelial and brain tumor or cancer, lymphoma, carcinoma, and sarcoma,and a metastatic cancer disease derived from any of the foregoing.

More specifically, the tumor or cancer disease can be selected from thegroup consisting of small cell lung cancer (SCLC), non-small ceil lungcancer (NSCLC), glioma, glioblastoma, melanoma, neuroendocrine prostatecancer, neuroendocrine pancreatic cancer, hepatoblastoma, andhepatocellular carcinoma. The metastatic cancer disease can be derivedfrom any of the foregoing.

The invention also provides a method for the treatment or ameliorationof tumor or cancer disease or a metastatic cancer disease, comprisingthe step of administering to a subject in need thereof the antibodyconstruct of the invention or the antibody construct produced accordingto the process of the invention.

The terms “subject in need” or those “in need of treatment” includesthose already with the disorder, as well as those in which the disorderis to be prevented. The subject in need or “patient” includes human andother mammalian subjects that receive either prophylactic or therapeutictreatment.

The antibody construct of the invention will generally be designed forspecific routes and methods of administration, for specific dosages andfrequencies of administration, for specific treatments of specificdiseases, with ranges of bio-availability and persistence, among otherthings. The materials of the composition are preferably formulated inconcentrations that are acceptable for the site of administration.

Formulations and compositions thus may be designed in accordance withthe invention for delivery by any suitable route of administration. Inthe context of the present invention, the routes of administrationinclude, but are not limited to

topical routes (such as epicutaneous, inhalational, nasal, opthalmic,auricular/aural, vaginal, mucosal);

enteral routes (such as oral, gastrointestinal, sublingual, sublabial,buccal, rectal); and

parenteral routes (such as intravenous, intraarterial, intraosseous,intramuscular, intracerebral, intracerebroventricular, epidural,intrathecal, subcutaneous, intraperitoneal, extra-amniotic,intraarticular, intracardiac, intradermal, intralesional, intrauterine,intravesical, intravitreal, transdermal, intranasal, transmucosal,intrasynovial, intraluminal).

The pharmaceutical compositions and the antibody construct of thisinvention are particularly useful for parenteral administration, e.g.,subcutaneous or intravenous delivery, for example by injection such asbolus injection, or by infusion such as continuous infusion.Pharmaceutical compositions may be administered using a medical device.Examples of medical devices for administering pharmaceuticalcompositions are described in U.S. Pat. Nos. 4,475,196; 4,439,196;4,447,224; 4,447, 233; 4,486,194; 4,487,603; 4,596,556; 4,790,824;4,941,880; 5,064,413; 5,312,335; 5,312,335; 5,383,851; and 5,399,163.

In particular, the present invention provides for an uninterruptedadministration of the suitable composition. As a non-limiting example,uninterrupted or substantially uninterrupted, i.e. continuousadministration may be realized by a small pump system worn by thepatient for metering the influx of therapeutic agent into the body ofthe patient. The pharmaceutical composition comprising the antibodyconstruct of the invention can be administered by using said pumpsystems. Such pump systems are generally known in the art, and commonlyrely on periodic exchange of cartridges containing the therapeutic agentto be infused. When exchanging the cartridge in such a pump system, atemporary interruption of the otherwise uninterrupted flow oftherapeutic agent into the body of the patient may ensue. In such acase, the phase of administration prior to cartridge replacement and thephase of administration following cartridge replacement would still beconsidered within the meaning of the pharmaceutical means and methods ofthe invention together make up one “uninterrupted administration” ofsuch therapeutic agent.

The continuous or uninterrupted administration of the antibodyconstructs of the invention may be intravenous or subcutaneous by way ofa fluid delivery device or small pump system including a fluid drivingmechanism for driving fluid out of a reservoir and an actuatingmechanism for actuating the driving mechanism. Pump systems forsubcutaneous administration may include a needle or a cannula forpenetrating the skin of a patient and delivering the suitablecomposition into the patient's body. Said pump systems may be directlyfixed or attached to the skin of the patient independently of a vein,artery or blood vessel, thereby allowing a direct contact between thepump system and the skin of the patient. The pump system can be attachedto the skin of the patient for 24 hours up to several days. The pumpsystem may be of small size with a reservoir for small volumes. As anon-limiting example, the volume of the reservoir for the suitablepharmaceutical composition to be administered can be between 0.1 and 50ml.

The continuous administration may also be transdermal by way of a patchworn on the skin and replaced at intervals. One of skill in the art isaware of patch systems for drug delivery suitable for this purpose. Itis of note that transdermal administration is especially amenable touninterrupted administration, as exchange of a first exhausted patch canadvantageously be accomplished simultaneously with the placement of anew, second patch, for example on the surface of the skin immediatelyadjacent to the first exhausted patch and immediately prior to removalof the first exhausted patch. Issues of flow interruption or power cellfailure do not arise.

If the pharmaceutical composition has been lyophilized, the lyophilizedmaterial is first reconstituted in an appropriate liquid prior toadministration. The lyophilized material may be reconstituted in, e.g.,bacteriostatic water for injection (BWFI), physiological saline,phosphate buffered saline (PBS), or the same formulation the protein hadbeen in prior to lyophilization.

The compositions of the present invention can be administered to thesubject at a suitable dose which can be determined e.g. by doseescalating studies by administration of increasing doses of the antibodyconstruct of the invention exhibiting cross-species specificitydescribed herein to non-chimpanzee primates, for instance macaques. Asset forth above, the antibody construct of the invention exhibitingcross-species specificity described herein can be advantageously used inidentical form in preclinical testing in non-chimpanzee primates and asdrug in humans. The dosage regimen will be determined by the attendingphysician and clinical factors. As is well known in the medical arts,dosages for any one patient depend upon many factors, including thepatient's size, body surface area, age, the particular compound to beadministered, sex, time and route of administration, general health, andother drugs being administered concurrently.

The term “effective dose” or “effective dosage” is defined as an amountsufficient to achieve or at least partially achieve the desired effect.The term “therapeutically effective dose” is defined as an amountsufficient to cure or at least partially arrest the disease and itscomplications in a patient already suffering from the disease. Amountsor doses effective for this use will depend on the condition to betreated (the indication), the delivered antibody construct, thetherapeutic context and objectives, the severity of the disease, priortherapy, the patient's clinical history and response to the therapeuticagent, the route of administration, the size (body weight, body surfaceor organ size) and/or condition (the age and general health) of thepatient, and the general state of the patient's own immune system. Theproper dose can be adjusted according to the judgment of the attendingphysician such that it can be administered to the patient once or over aseries of administrations, and in order to obtain the optimaltherapeutic effect.

A typical dosage may range from about 0.1 μg/kg to up to about 30 mg/kgor more, depending on the factors mentioned above. In specificembodiments, the dosage may range from 1.0 μg/kg up to about 20 mg/kg,optionally from 10 μg/kg up to about 10 mg/kg or from 100 μg/kg up toabout 5 mg/kg.

A therapeutic effective amount of an antibody construct of the inventionpreferably results in a decrease in severity of disease symptoms, anincrease in frequency or duration of disease symptom-free periods or aprevention of impairment or disability due to the disease affliction.For treating DLL3-expressing tumors, a therapeutically effective amountof the antibody construct of the invention, e.g. an anti-DLL3/anti-CD3antibody construct, preferably inhibits cell growth or tumor growth byat least about 20%, at least about 40%, at least about 50%, at leastabout 60%, at least about 70%, at least about 80%, or at least about 90%relative to untreated patients. The ability of a compound to inhibittumor growth may be evaluated in an animal model predictive of efficacyin human tumors.

The pharmaceutical composition can be administered as a sole therapeuticor in combination with additional therapies such as anti-cancertherapies as needed, e.g. other proteinaceous and non-proteinaceousdrugs. These drugs may be administered simultaneously with thecomposition comprising the antibody construct of the invention asdefined herein or separately before or after administration of saidantibody construct in timely defined intervals and doses.

The term “effective and non-toxic dose” as used herein refers to atolerable dose of an inventive antibody construct which is high enoughto cause depletion of pathologic cells, tumor elimination, tumorshrinkage or stabilization of disease without or essentially withoutmajor toxic effects. Such effective and non-toxic doses may bedetermined e.g. by dose escalation studies described in the art andshould be below the dose inducing severe adverse side events (doselimiting toxicity, DLT).

The term “toxicity” as used herein refers to the toxic effects of a drugmanifested in adverse events or severe adverse events. These side eventsmight refer to a lack of tolerability of the drug in general and/or alack of local tolerance after administration. Toxicity could alsoinclude teratogenic or carcinogenic effects caused by the drug.

The term “safety”, “in vivo safety” or “tolerability” as used hereindefines the administration of a drug without inducing severe adverseevents directly after administration (local tolerance) and during alonger period of application of the drug. “Safety”, “in vivo safety” or“tolerability” can be evaluated e.g. at regular intervals during thetreatment and follow-up period. Measurements include clinicalevaluation, e.g. organ manifestations, and screening of laboratoryabnormalities. Clinical evaluation may be carried out and deviations tonormal findings recorded/coded according to NCI-CTC and/or MedDRAstandards. Organ manifestations may include criteria such asallergy/immunology, blood/bone marrow, cardiac arrhythmia, coagulationand the like, as set forth e.g. in the Common Terminology Criteria foradverse events v3.0 (CTCAE). Laboratory parameters which may be testedinclude for instance hematology, clinical chemistry, coagulation profileand urine analysis and examination of other body fluids such as serum,plasma, lymphoid or spinal fluid, liquor and the like. Safety can thusbe assessed e.g. by physical examination, imaging techniques (i.e.ultrasound, x-ray, CT scans, Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI), othermeasures with technical devices (i.e. electrocardiogram), vital signs,by measuring laboratory parameters and recording adverse events. Forexample, adverse events in non-chimpanzee primates in the uses andmethods according to the invention may be examined by histopathologicaland/or histochemical methods.

The above terms are also referred to e.g. in the Preclinical safetyevaluation of biotechnology-derived pharmaceuticals S6; ICH HarmonisedTripartite Guideline; ICH Steering Committee meeting on Jul. 16, 1997.

In a further embodiment, the invention provides a kit comprising anantibody construct of the invention, an antibody construct producedaccording to the process of the invention, a polypeptide of theinvention, a vector of the invention, and/or a host cell of theinvention.

In the context of the present invention, the term “kit” means two ormore components—one of which corresponding to the antibody construct,the pharmaceutical composition, the vector or the host cell of theinvention—packaged together in a container, recipient or otherwise. Akit can hence be described as a set of products and/or utensils that aresufficient to achieve a certain goal, which can be marketed as a singleunit.

The kit may comprise one or more recipients (such as vials, ampoules,containers, syringes, bottles, bags) of any appropriate shape, size andmaterial (preferably waterproof, e.g. plastic or glass) containing theantibody construct or the pharmaceutical composition of the presentinvention in an appropriate dosage for administration (see above). Thekit may additionally contain directions for use (e.g. in the form of aleaflet or instruction manual), means for administering the antibodyconstruct of the present invention such as a syringe, pump, infuser orthe like, means for reconstituting the antibody construct of theinvention and/or means for diluting the antibody construct of theinvention.

The invention also provides kits for a single-dose administration unit.The kit of the invention may also contain a first recipient comprising adried/lyophilized antibody construct and a second recipient comprisingan aqueous formulation. In certain embodiments of this invention, kitscontaining single-chambered and multi-chambered pre-filled syringes(e.g., liquid syringes and lyosyringes) are provided.

For the construction of the truncated DLL3 molecules used for epitopemapping, the sequences of the respective eight extracellular domains(Signal peptide plus N-terminus, DSL, EGF1, EGF2, EGF3, EGF4, EGF5 andEGF6) of human DLL3 were stepwise deleted from the antigen, startingfrom the N-terminus. The following molecules were generated; see alsoFIG. 1:

For the generation of CHO cells expressing human, cynomolgus macaque(“cyno”) and truncated human N-terminal V5 tagged DLL3, the respectivecoding sequences for human DLL3-ECD (SEQ ID NO: 253; see also GeneBankaccession number NM_016941), cyno DLL3-ECD (SEQ ID NO: 272) and theseven truncated human N-terminal V5 tagged DLL3-ECD versions (see above)were cloned into a plasmid designated pEF-DHFR (pEF-DHFR is described inRaum et al. Cancer Immunol Immunother 50 (2001) 141-150). For cellsurface expression of human and cyno DLL3 the original signal peptidewas used, and for cell surface expression of the truncated humanN-terminal DLL3 a mouse IgG heavy chain signal peptide was used,followed by a V5 tag. All mentioned DLL3-ECD sequences were followed inframe by the coding sequence of an artificial Ser/Gly-linker followed bya domain derived from the transmembrane/intracellular domain of humanEpCAM (amino acids 266-314 of the sequence as published in GenBankaccession number NM_002354). All cloning procedures were carried outaccording to standard protocols (Sambrook, Molecular Cloning; ALaboratory Manual, 3rd edition, Cold Spring Harbour Laboratory Press,Cold Spring Harbour, N.Y. (2001)). For each construct, a correspondingplasmid was transfected into DHFR deficient CHO cells for eukaryoticexpression, as described by Kaufman R. J. (1990) Methods Enzymol. 185,537-566.

The expression of human and cyno DLL3 on CHO cells was verified in aFACS assay using a monoclonal mouse IgG2b anti-human DLL3 antibody. Theexpression of the seven truncated versions of human DLL3-ECD wasverified using a monoclonal mouse IgG2a anti-v5 tag antibody. Boundmonoclonal antibody was detected with an anti-mouse IgG Fc-gamma-PE. Asnegative control, cells were incubated with isotype control antibodyinstead of the first antibody. The samples were measured by flowcytometry.

Example 2

Epitope Mapping of Anti-DLL3 Antibody Constructs

Cells transfected with human DLL3 and with the truncated human DLL3molecules (see Example 1) were stained with crude, undiluted periplasmicextract containing bispecific DLL3×CD3 antibody constructs (with the CD3binding domain being denominated I2C) fused to a human albumin (variant1), in PBS/1.5% FCS. Bound molecules were detected with an in-housemouse monoclonal anti-CD3 binding domain antibody (50 μl) followed by ananti-mouse IgG Fc-gamma-PE (1:100, 50 μl; Jackson Immunoresearch#115-116-071) All antibodies were diluted in PBS/1.5% FCS. As negativecontrol, cells were incubated with PBS/2% FCS instead of the periplasmicextract. The samples were measured by flow cytometry.

The regions that were recognized by the respective DLL3 binding domainsare indicated in the sequence table (Table 18). Binders were mapped thatwere specific for an epitope located within the N-terminus of DLL3,within the DSL domain, and within the different EGF domains.

FIGS. 2A and 2B shows two exemplary binders which bind to a DLL3 epitopecomprised within the EGF-3 region (loss of the FACS signal in therespective truncated DLL3 constructs not comprising EGF-3). FIGS. 2A and2B also shows an exemplary binder which binds to a DLL3 epitopecomprised within the EGF-3 region (loss of the FACS signal in therespective truncated DLL3 constructs not comprising EGF-4).

Some of the binders are described to be specific for an epitope locatedwith the region denominated EGF-5/[6]. The squared brackets are meant toindicate that the FACS signal of the binder is decreased (i.e., neitherfully present nor fully lost) for the truncated DLL3 construct havingonly the EGF-6 domain left (last construct in FIG. 1).

The bispecific DLL3×CD3 constructs used in the following examples arechosen from those constructs having “I2C” as the CD3 binding domain andhaving a C-terminal fusion to a wild-type human serum albumin, see e.g.SEQ ID NOs: 224-230, 233-235, 238-241.

Biacore-Based Determination of Antibody Affinity to Human and CynomolgusDLL3

Biacore analysis experiments were performed using recombinant human/cynoDLL3-ECD fusion proteins with chicken albumin to determine targetbinding of the antibody constructs of the invention.

In detail, CM5 Sensor Chips (GE Healthcare) were immobilized withapproximately 600-800 RU of the respective recombinant antigen usingacetate buffer pH 4.5 according to the manufacturer's manual. TheDLL3×CD3 bispecific antibody construct samples were loaded in a dilutionseries of the following concentrations: 50 nM, 25 nM, 12.5 nM, 6.25 nMand 3.13 nM diluted in HBS-EP running buffer (GE Healthcare). Flow ratewas 30 μl/min for 3 min, then HBS-EP running buffer was applied for 8min to 20 min again at a flow rate of 30 μl/ml. Regeneration of the chipwas performed using 10 mM glycine 10 mM NaCl pH 1.5 solution. Data setswere analyzed using BiaEval Software. In general two independentexperiments were performed.

The DLL3×CD3 bispecific antibody constructs according to the inventionshowed very high affinities to human DLL3 in the subnanomolar range(with the exception of DLL3-13 having a KD value in the very lowone-digit nanomolar range). Binding to macaque DLL3 was balanced, alsoshowing affinities in similar ranges. The affinity values as well as thecalculated affinity gap are shown in Table 2.

Scatchard-Based Analysis of DLL3×CD3 Bispecific Antibody ConstructAffinity to Human and Macaque DLL3 on Target Antigen Positive Cells andDetermination of the Interspecies Affinity Gap

The affinities of DLL3×CD3 bispecific antibody constructs to CHO cellstransfected with human or macaque DLL3 were also determined by Scatchardanalysis as the most reliable method for measuring potential affinitygaps between human and macaque DLL3. For the Scatchard analysis,saturation binding experiments are performed using a monovalentdetection system to precisely determine monovalent binding of theDLL3×CD3 bispecific antibody constructs to the respective cell line.

2×10⁴ cells of the respective cell line (recombinantly humanDLL3-expressing CHO cell line, recombinantly macaque DLL3-expressing CHOcell line) were incubated each with 50 μl of a triplet dilution series(twelve dilutions at 1:2) of the respective DLL3×CD3 bispecific antibodyconstruct (until saturation is reached) starting at 10-20 nM followed by16 h incubation at 4° C. under agitation and one residual washing step.Then, the cells were incubated for another hour with 30 μl of aCD3×ALEXA488 conjugate solution. After one washing step, the cells wereresuspended in 150 μl FACS buffer containing 3.5% formaldehyde,incubated for further 15 min, centrifuged, resuspended in FACS bufferand analyzed using a FACS Cantoll machine and FACS Diva software. Datawere generated from two independent sets of experiments, each usingtriplicates. Respective Scatchard analysis was calculated to extrapolatemaximal binding (Bmax). The concentrations of DLL3×CD3 bispecificantibody constructs at half-maximal binding were determined reflectingthe respective KDs. Values of triplicate measurements were plotted ashyperbolic curves and as S-shaped curves to demonstrate properconcentration ranges from minimal to optimal binding.

Values depicted in Table 3 were derived from two independent experimentsper DLL3×CD3 bispecific antibody construct. Cell based Scatchardanalysis confirmed that the DLL3×CD3 bispecific antibody constructs ofthe invention are subnanomolar in affinity to human DLL3 and to mac DLL3and present with a small cyno/human interspecies affinity gap of around

Bispecific Binding and Interspecies Cross-Reactivity

For confirmation of binding to human DLL3 and CD3 and to cyno DLL3 andCD3, bispecific antibody constructs of the invention were tested by flowcytometry using

-   -   CHO cells transfected with human DLL3, with an artificial human        DLL3 isoform (characterized by the point mutations F172C and        L218P), and with macaque DLL3, respectively,    -   the human DLL3 positive human lung carcinoma cell line SHP-77,    -   CD3-expressing human T cell leukemia cell line HPB-all (DSMZ,        Braunschweig, ACC483), and    -   the cynomolgus CD3-expressing T cell line LnPx 4119

For flow cytometry 200,000 cells of the respective cell lines wereincubated for 60 min at 4° C. with 50 μl of purified bispecific antibodyconstruct at a concentration of 5 μg/ml. The cells were washed twice inPBS/2% FCS and then incubated with an in-house mouse antibody (2 μg/ml)specific for the CD3 binding part of the bispecific antibody constructsfor 30 min at 4° C. After washing, bound mouse antibodies were detectedwith a goat anti-mouse Fcγ-PE (1:100) for 30 min at 4° C. Samples weremeasured by flow cytometry. Non-transfected CHO cells were used asnegative control.

The results are shown in FIGS. 3A-3C. The DLL3×CD3 bispecific antibodyconstructs of the invention stained CHO cells transfected with humanDLL3, the artificial DLL3 isoform and with cyno DLL3, and they alsostained the human DLL3 positive human lung carcinoma cell line SHP-77(natural expresser). Human and cyno T cell lines expressing CD3 werealso recognized by the bispecific antibody constructs. Moreover, therewas no staining of the negative control cells (non-transfected CHO, datashown in Example 6).

Example 6

Confirmation of the Absence of Binding to Human Paralogues

Human DLL3 paralogues DLL1 and DLL4 were stably transfected into CHOcells. The sequences of the paralogues as used in the present Exampleare identified in the sequence listing (SEQ ID NOs: 283 and 284).Protein expression was confirmed in FACS analyses with antibodiesspecific for the respective paralogues: Antibodies were anti-human DLL1MAB1818 (R&D; 5 μg/ml), and anti-human DLL4 MAB1506 (R&D; 5 μg/ml) forDLL4.

The flow cytometry assay was carried out as described in Example 5, withthe exception that bound mouse antibodies were detected with a goatanti-mouse FITC (1:100). The results are shown in FIG. 4. The analysisconfirmed that none of the DLL3×CD3 bispecific antibody constructs ofthe invention cross-reacts with the human DLL3 paralogues DLL1 and DLL4.

Example 8.1

Chromium Release Assay with Stimulated Human T Cells

Stimulated T cells enriched for CD8⁺ T cells were obtained as describedin the following. A petri dish (145 mm diameter, Greiner bio-one GmbH,Kremsmünster) was coated with a commercially available anti-CD3 specificantibody (OKT3, Orthoclone) in a final concentration of 1 μg/ml for 1hour at 37° C. Unbound protein was removed by one washing step with PBS.3-5×10⁷ human PBMC were added to the precoated petri dish in 120 ml ofRPMI 1640 with stabilized glutamine/10% FCS/IL-2 20 U/ml (Proleukin®,Chiron) and stimulated for 2 days. On the third day, the cells werecollected and washed once with RPMI 1640. IL-2 was added to a finalconcentration of 20 U/ml and the cells were cultured again for one dayin the same cell culture medium as above. CD8⁺ cytotoxic T lymphocytes(CTLs) were enriched by depletion of CD4⁺ T cells and CD56⁺ NK cellsusing Dynal-Beads according to the manufacturer's protocol.

Cyno DLL3- or human DLL3-transfected CHO target cells were washed twicewith PBS and labeled with 11.1 MBq ⁵¹Cr in a final volume of 100 μl RPMIwith 50% FCS for 60 minutes at 37° C. Subsequently, the labeled targetcells were washed 3 times with 5 ml RPMI and then used in thecytotoxicity assay. The assay was performed in a 96-well plate in atotal volume of 200 μl supplemented RPMI with an E:T ratio of 10:1. Astarting concentration of 0.01-1 μg/ml of purified bispecific antibodyconstruct and threefold dilutions thereof were used. Incubation time forthe assay was 18 hours. Cytotoxicity was determined as relative valuesof released chromium in the supernatant relative to the difference ofmaximum lysis (addition of Triton-X) and spontaneous lysis (withouteffector cells). All measurements were carried out in quadruplicates.Measurement of chromium activity in the supernatants was performed in aWizard 3″ gamma counter (Perkin Elmer Life Sciences GmbH, Köln,Germany). Analysis of the results was carried out with Prism 5 forWindows (version 5.0, GraphPad Software Inc., San Diego, Calif., USA).EC50 values calculated by the analysis program from the sigmoidal doseresponse curves were used for comparison of cytotoxic activity.

FACS-Based Cytotoxicity Assay with Unstimulated Human PBMC

Isolation of Effector Cells

Human peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) were prepared by Ficolldensity gradient centrifugation from enriched lymphocyte preparations(buffy coats), a side product of blood banks collecting blood fortransfusions. Buffy coats were supplied by a local blood bank and PBMCwere prepared on the same day of blood collection. After Ficoll densitycentrifugation and extensive washes with Dulbecco's PBS (Gibco),remaining erythrocytes were removed from PBMC via incubation witherythrocyte lysis buffer (155 mM NH₄Cl, 10 mM KHCO₃, 100 μM EDTA).Platelets were removed via the supernatant upon centrifugation of PBMCat 100×g. Remaining lymphocytes mainly encompass B and T lymphocytes, NKcells and monocytes. PBMC were kept in culture at 37° C./5% CO₂ in RPMImedium (Gibco) with 10% FCS (Gibco).

Depletion of CD14⁺ and CD56⁺ Cells

For depletion of CD14⁺ cells, human CD14 MicroBeads (Milteny Biotec,MACS, #130-050-201) were used, for depletion of NK cells human CD56MicroBeads (MACS, #130-050-401). PBMC were counted and centrifuged for10 min at room temperature with 300×g. The supernatant was discarded andthe cell pellet resuspended in MACS isolation buffer [80 μL/10⁷ cells;PBS (Invitrogen, #20012-043), 0.5% (v/v) FBS (Gibco, #10270-106), 2 mMEDTA (Sigma-Aldrich, # E-6511)]. CD14 MicroBeads and CD56 MicroBeads (20μL/10⁷ cells) were added and incubated for 15 min at 4-8° C. The cellswere washed with MACS isolation buffer (1-2 mL/10⁷ cells). Aftercentrifugation (see above), supernatant was discarded and cellsresuspended in MACS isolation buffer (500 μL/10⁸ cells). CD14/CD56negative cells were then isolated using LS Columns (Miltenyi Biotec,#130-042-401). PBMC w/o CD14⁺/CD56⁺ cells were cultured in RPMI completemedium i.e. RPMI1640 (Biochrom AG, # FG1215) supplemented with 10% FBS(Biochrom AG, #+S0115), 1× non-essential amino acids (Biochrom AG, #K0293), 10 mM Hepes buffer (Biochrom AG, # L1613), 1 mM sodium pyruvate(Biochrom AG, # L0473) and 100 U/mL penicillin/streptomycin (BiochromAG, # A2213) at 37° C. in an incubator until needed.

Target Cell Labeling

For the analysis of cell lysis in flow cytometry assays, the fluorescentmembrane dye DiOC₁₈ (DiO) (Molecular Probes, # V22886) was used to labelhuman DLL3- or macaque DLL3-transfected CHO cells as target cells anddistinguish them from effector cells. Briefly, cells were harvested,washed once with PBS and adjusted to 10⁶ cell/mL in PBS containing 2%(v/v) FBS and the membrane dye DiO (5 μL/10⁶ cells). After incubationfor 3 min at 37° C., cells were washed twice in complete RPMI medium andthe cell number adjusted to 1.25×10⁵ cells/mL. The vitality of cells wasdetermined using 0.5% (v/v) isotonic EosinG solution (Roth, #45380).

Flow Cytometry Based Analysis

This assay was designed to quantify the lysis of cyno or humanDLL3-transfected CHO cells in the presence of serial dilutions of DLL3bispecific antibody constructs. Equal volumes of DiO-labeled targetcells and effector cells (i.e., PBMC w/o CD14⁺ cells) were mixed,resulting in an E:T cell ratio of 10:1. 160 μl of this suspension weretransferred to each well of a 96-well plate. 40 μL of serial dilutionsof the DLL3×CD3 bispecific antibody constructs and a negative controlbispecific (a CD3-based bispecific antibody construct recognizing anirrelevant target antigen) or RPMI complete medium as an additionalnegative control were added. The bispecific antibody-mediated cytotoxicreaction proceeded for 48 hours in a 7% CO₂ humidified incubator. Thencells were transferred to a new 96-well plate and loss of target cellmembrane integrity was monitored by adding propidium iodide (PI) at afinal concentration of 1 μg/mL. PI is a membrane impermeable dye thatnormally is excluded from viable cells, whereas dead cells take it upand become identifiable by fluorescent emission.

Samples were measured by flow cytometry on a FACSCanto II instrument andanalyzed by FACSDiva software (both from Becton Dickinson). Target cellswere identified as DiO-positive cells. PI-negative target cells wereclassified as living target cells. Percentage of cytotoxicity wascalculated according to the following formula:

${{Cytotoxicity}\mspace{14mu}\lbrack\%\rbrack} = {\frac{n_{{dead}\mspace{14mu}{target}\mspace{14mu}{cells}}}{n_{{target}\mspace{14mu}{cells}}} \times 100}$n = number  of  events

Using GraphPad Prism 5 software (Graph Pad Software, San Diego), thepercentage of cytotoxicity was plotted against the correspondingbispecific antibody construct concentrations. Dose response curves wereanalyzed with the four parametric logistic regression models forevaluation of sigmoid dose response curves with fixed hill slope andEC50 values were calculated.

Monomer to Dimer Conversion after (i) Three Freeze/Thaw Cycles and (ii)7 Days of Incubation at 250 μg/Ml

Bispecific DLL3×CD3 antibody monomeric construct were subjected todifferent stress conditions followed by high performance SEC todetermine the percentage of initially monomeric antibody construct,which had been converted into dimeric antibody construct.

(i) 25 μg of monomeric antibody construct were adjusted to aconcentration of 250 μg/ml with generic formulation buffer and thenfrozen at −80° C. for 30 min followed by thawing for 30 min at roomtemperature. After three freeze/thaw cycles the dimer content wasdetermined by HP-SEC.

(ii) 25 μg of monomeric antibody construct were adjusted to aconcentration of 250 μg/ml with generic formulation buffer followed byincubation at 37° C. for 7 days. The dimer content was determined byHP-SEC.

A high resolution SEC Column TSK Gel G3000 SWXL (Tosoh, Tokyo-Japan) wasconnected to an Äkta Purifier 10 FPLC (GE Lifesciences) equipped with anA905 Autosampler. Column equilibration and running buffer consisted of100 mM KH2PO4-200 mM Na2SO4 adjusted to pH 6.6. The antibody solution(25 μg protein) was applied to the equilibrated column and elution wascarried out at a flow rate of 0.75 ml/min at a maximum pressure of 7MPa. The whole run was monitored at 280, 254 and 210 nm opticalabsorbance. Analysis was done by peak integration of the 210 nm signalrecorded in the Äkta Unicorn software run evaluation sheet. Dimercontent was calculated by dividing the area of the dimer peak by thetotal area of monomer plus dimer peak.

Potency Gap Between the Monomeric and the Dimeric Isoform of BispecificAntibody Constructs

In order to determine the difference in cytotoxic activity between themonomeric and the dimeric isoform of individual DLL3×CD3 bispecificantibody constructs (referred to as potency gap), an 18 hour 51-chromiumrelease cytotoxicity assay was carried out as described hereinabove(Example 8.1) with purified bispecific antibody construct monomer anddimer. Effector cells were stimulated enriched human CD8+ T cells.Target cells were hu DLL3 transfected CHO cells. Effector to target cell(E:T) ratio was 10:1. The potency gap was calculated as ratio betweenEC50 values.

The results are shown in Table 15 below; exemplary results for the twoantibody constructs DLL-4 and DLL-14 are also shown in FIG. 6. Potencygaps of the tested DLL3×CD3 bispecific antibody constructs were between0.2 and 1.0. There is hence no substantially more active dimer comparedto its respective monomer.

In Vitro Internalization Assay

Changes in the potency of the DLL3×CD3 bispecific antibody construct asa function of preincubation of the construct on the target cells in theabsence of T cells were measured. If the antibody construct isinternalized, it should undergo lysosomal degradation. The effectiveconcentration should decrease with time, and thus the apparent potencyshould decrease as well. The effect is observed with other targets, forwhich this is a known phenomenon, but no impact was observed with theDLL3×CD3 bispecific antibody construct. The assay was carried out asfollows:

T cells were counted and diluted to a concentration of 1×10⁵/ml in assaymedia. SHP-77 cells were counted and plated at 2500 cells per well(cpw). The antibody construct was diluted serially 1:2 (with Bravo), ata starting concentration of 100 nM. The antibody construct was added tothe culture assay plates to allow for 0 hours, 1 hour or 2 hours ofincubation prior to addition of the T cells. Then the T cells wereplated at 25000 cpw, and the assay was incubated for 48 hours at 37° C.SHP-77 cell survival was analyzed with the Steady-Glo® system (25μl/well). The results are shown in FIG. 7 and suggest no significantinternalization of the antibody construct DLL3-4×CD3 (I2C).

In order to analyze whether the cytotoxic activity of the DLL3×CD3bispecific antibody constructs of the invention is significantlyimpaired by the presence of shed DLL, the following assay was carriedout: T cells were counted and diluted to a concentration of 1×10⁵/ml inassay media. SHP-77 cells were counted and diluted to a concentration of1.25×10⁵/ml in assay media with increasing concentrations of solubleDLL3 between 0.3 nM and 12 nM. SHP-77 cells were plated at 2500 cellsper well (cpw), and T cells were added at 25000 cpw. The antibodyconstruct was diluted serially 1:2 (with Bravo), and added to theculture assay (with Bravo). Incubation occurred for 48 hours at 37° C.SHP-77 cell survival was analyzed with the Steady-Glo® system (25μl/well).

The anti-tumor activity of an HLE DLL3×CD3 bispecific antibody construct(SEQ ID NO: 517) was tested in a model of female NOD/SCID mice whichwere subcutaneously injected on day 1 of the study with 5×10⁶ human DLL3positive SCLC (SHP-77 luc) or 5×10⁶ human DLL3 positive melanoma (WM266-4) cells. Effector cells (2×10⁷ in vitro expanded and activatedliving human CD3+ T cells) were injected intraperitoneally on day 12.Treatment start was on day 16 (WM 266-4) or on day 18 (SHP-77 luc). Theantibody construct was administered four times every five days (q5d×4)by i.v. bolus injections. The treatment groups were as follows:

-   -   SCLC model (SHP-77 luc)/7 mice per group        -   Vehicle-treated group with T cells        -   DLL3×CD3 bispecific antibody construct: 10 mg/kg per            administration    -   Melanoma model (WM266-4)/9 mice per group        -   Vehicle-treated group with T cells        -   DLL3×CD3 bispecific antibody construct: 10 mg/kg per            administration        -   DLL3×CD3 bispecific antibody construct: 2 mg/kg per            administration

Tumors were measured by caliper during the study and progress evaluatedby intergroup comparison of tumor volumes (TV). The tumor growthinhibition T/C [%] on day x is determined by calculating the tumorvolume as T/C (%)=100× (median TV of analyzed group)/(median TV ofcontrol group), and the calculated values are depicted in the followingtable 16:

Cyno Exploratory Toxicology Study

An exploratory toxicology study was carried out with a non half-lifeextended DLL3×CD3 bispecific antibody construct (SEQ ID NO: 554). Threefemale cynomolgus monkeys were dosed via continuous i.v. infusion for 16days (5, 15, and 45 μg/kg/day for 3 days each, followed by 100 μg/kg/dayfor 7 days). No test article-related clinical observations, changes inbody temperature, food consumption or body weight were observed.

Consistent with expectations for the pharmacology of a DLL3×CD3bispecific antibody construct, circulating T lymphocyte populations(total T-lymphocytes, T-helper and T-cytotoxic lymphocytes, NK cells,B-lymphocytes, and CD25+ activated T-lymphocytes) were decreased on thefirst day of dosing and remained lower throughout the duration of thestudy in all animals. Activation markers (CD69 and CD25 on activated Tcells) were increased on day 1, but not at later time points in thestudy.

To summarize, the DLL3×CD3 bispecific antibody construct was very welltolerated even at the highest dose tested (100 μg/kg/d, ≥300×EC₅₀).

Cyno PK Studys

A cyno PK study was performed with naïve male cynomolgus monkeys. Threedifferent albumin-fused DLL3×CD3 (I2C) bispecific antibody constructs(DLL3-4, DLL3-6 and DLL3-14) were administered as i.v. single bolus at aconcentration of 12 μg/kg. For each of the molecules a group of twoanimals was used.

A separate cyno PK study was performed under the same conditions, butwith DLL3-4 in different Fc fusion versions.

Blood samples were collected pre-dose and at 0.05, 0.5, 1, 4, 8, 24, 48,72, 120, 168, 240, and 336 hours post-dose. Serum was prepared fordetermination of serum concentrations of the molecules in animmunoassay. The assay was performed by capturing the antibodyconstructs via their target moiety, while an antibody directed againstthe CD3-binding part of the construct was used for detection. The serumconcentration-time profiles were used to determine PK parameters. Thepharmacokinetic parameters were determined using standardnon-compartmental analysis (NCA) methods. The following PK parameterswere assessed: AUC_(inf) (Area under the serum concentration-timecurve), V_(ss) (volume of distribution at steady state), CL (systemicclearance) and terminal t_(1/2) (terminal half-life). For all antibodyconstructs, serum levels were quantifiable for all time points in allanimals after their administration. No clinical observations were madein any of the treated animals.

The pharmacokinetics of the tested antibody constructs are shown inFIGS. 9A and 9B, and the PK parameters are summarized as mean of n=2 intable 17 below.

The albumin-fused constructs showed a favorable PK profile consistentwith a once or twice weekly dosing schedule in a human patient. An evenmore favorable PK profile supporting once weekly dosing or even everyother week dosing was observed with an Fc fusion construct (scFc).
